This guy is all laughs.........and being made out of ceramic, he never moved so much as a millimeter once I got him into position.  

I think this shows the ability of this lens to capture nuance at almost wideopen.   The same proprosition applies for this lens as the Pinkham SA Ser. I in that depending on your lighting, you can incorporate flare or eliminate it.

I've read w/bemusement the thread on Bokeh on the LFF forum.   These lenses do what they do, and while I copied what these folks created over 100yrs ago, it's mindboggling they came up w/these very fomulas from scratch.
