The bokeh doesn't get worse stopped down. The background just becomes less blurred and therefore more noticeable. I guess a lot of people have to put a worse or better label on everything though in order for it to compute.
Sorry, but I prefer to use my own eyes and I know exactly what I see and what I'm talking about. The bokeh definitely gets worse stopped down, at the focus distances I like to shoot at. The Loxia 35/2 bokeh gets smoother when you stop down.
The amount of blur has nothing to do with bokeh quality.
The amount of blur definitely has something to do with the bokeh quality. It's ridiculous - to me - to say that it doesn't. They're intrinsically linked.
Anyway to toss terms like "bad bokeh" around is pointless and purely subjective.
