Perhaps I just expected more than a 1980's wide angle f/2 lens can deliver.

I'm surprised - I don't have the experience but the Kiron f/2's have a very
good reputation.

I agree with all that you said except that I don't find the Kiron 28/2 to be
particularly well endowed. Maybe the Zuiko 28/2 isn't particularly well
endowed either when it's wide open. Anyhow I find that the Kiron 28/2 doesn't
begin to come close to the Zuiko 28/2.8 until f/5.6. And even that's a bit of
a stretch. But certainly from f/8 on it's a dead heat.
Perhaps my Kiron 28/2 is a bad copy but I don't think it very likely. If the
box was in a little better shape I could probably pass it off as new old stock.
