Switch already. You don't need a 58 L to switch. Either the 50 1.2 or the 1.4 might be less than perfect, but you will get the skin colour, and they are very good lenses. Even the new 50 f/1.8 STM is a very good lens.
Why live with a "no-go" for photographing people when that is what you do -- photograph people? It makes no sense at all.
There are also other lenses in that range for you to choose from: Zeiss, Otus, Milvus, Sigma Art, ....
You can even mount the Nikkor 58 1.4G on a Canon camera of your choice and use Live View, depending on the particular portrait, especially if they are sitting portraits, or standing with a bicycle like the one of your wife. But since you specify 1D-X, I guess you want the AutoFocus.
Well you can have AF-ed lovely skin tones or AF-ed no-go skin tones. You've made your choice between those two, though I find it impossible to understand.

That is a great idea!
Elijah -- Switch now -- it's only getting better with each release Canon makes. I like Nikon too, but for portraits and dreamy subjects, Canon has to be considered tops in gear and "look".
Who's the Russian woman who photographs her kids primarily with the 135L and 50L? Amazing work!
Personally, I like the 50L just fine using the center point for AF. The look is great. But I can see a 58mm update for it.
A 58L would open a little needed space if there is ever to be a new 45 TSE II unveiled. Then you'd have the 35LII, 45TSE II, 58L, 85LII and (maybe) 135L IS. Since you are in that deep, you might as well put a cherry on it with the 200/2L IS. Whoa, that sounds amazing! And doable!
