Plus if you don't need IS and can stop down the 17-40L is the same IQ more or less with a more useful, slightly sharper long end.
No doubt the 16-35 f4IS is making a lot of heat right now, but that's right at the margins of lens performance. Is that worth twice the price to you?
The 17-40L doesn't get as sharp as the 16-35 f4L IS at any aperture, at the wide end... and I have plenty of better choices at the long end of that range... and the price difference was only about C$250, not double... so yes, it was well worth it to me.
