That would be an insane achievement list. I suspect it will take several years to reach the end. But there are for sure some major winners in there.
At the same time, the premium on brand new lenses is absurd. For half those you could buy a small condo or a rancher in middle America.
I much prefer to be in a system that has some maturity. The Voigtlander E mount lenses are a dream to have and use. 200-600 is a special lens. 135 1.8 GM, 85 1.4 GM and 24 1.4 GMs the same.
Tilt shifting lenses are a major blind spot in the Sony ecosystem. Hopefully this rumor compels some work.

Here come several more mushrooms
Canonrumors.com :
"These lenses are likely next in the pipeline:
-Canon RF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM
-External zoom, extremely small size. I’m told it’s about the size of a coke can.
-Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM
This lens will be better optically and in build quality than the EF version."
These lenses are likely being announced in 2021:
The TS-R lenses are “groundbreaking” autofocus tilt-shift lenses for the RF mount.
-Canon TS-R 14mm f/4L
-Canon TS-R 24mm f/3.5L
-Canon RF 10-24mm f/4L USM
-Canon RF 14-35mm f/4L IS USM
-Canon RF 24mm f/1.8 IS STM Macro
-Canon RF 35mm f/1.2L USM
-Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM
-Canon RF 135mm f/1.4L USM
-Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-7.1 IS USM
-Canon RF 400mm f/2.8L IS USM
-Canon RF 500mm f/4L IS USM
-Canon RF 600mm f/4L IS USM
-Canon RF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM
-Canon RF 1200mm f/8L IS USM.
So there you have it, I have been blown away by what was coming from Canon and this should do the same for you guys."
If I think at the new Nikon 19mm TS, which is 3500 Euros, here, crazy. I don't want to spent that money for specialised lenses I rarely have a use for.
I have the Canon TS 24 II, but will sell it. It is not competing well with 61MP and the borders are really bad when shifting.
I tested it against the Sony 20 (cropped) and the Sony is so much better. I now do all the shots at weddings from the venue using the 20mm cropped to 9x00 x 5000 pixels.
