...My 300 PF on my D500 gives very sharp results and the AF for small & fast-moving subjects. While others may certainly have got better results than mine below with any of the above lenses, I would not have. And many others would not have. That is simply because they and myself could not wield the above super-teles to get the shots in the first place.
So just like the 300 PF, there are many who will find a 500 PF better for themselves than than a 500 f4, etc.
It matters not if other lenses have better IQ & AF for those unable to use them.

Very well put...
For some money is not an obstacle to making a purchasing decision, and for others weight is not an obstacle.
On the flip side, there are many where both budget and mass of are significant factors. In these cases, the PF lenses appear to provide the opportunity for those willing to spend a fair of money to get the benefits of modern optics and a reduction of mass.
Regardless of what one chooses to attach to the camera, getting to your desired location and making strong compositional decisions will have a greater impact on the final image than shooting with the most perfect lens. For those who can have it all... good for you!
