There simply is not very much application for it unless one belongs to the very few who realy know how to use a wide angle lens ........
Besides ultra wide angles and a Leica are a bad match .... you have to move in too close with people to feel comfortable and need a tripod for anything else because external finders suck and are not a joy to use. On top ... for interiorshots f4.0 is just to slow!
I do not have a WATE but have a CV 15 and Zeiss 18/4 which both get little to no use for all the reasons above.
