????? why not?!?!
i would say "玩標準鏡, 硬係唔買Zeiss 鏡!"
my choice is Summicron: cheaper, smaller, lighter, sharper, the sharpest!!! higher resolution, best out of focus area ...

Not a fair comparison wow, Zeiss is a f1.4, your Summicron is only f2.0.  If you were to compare the 2, it should be the summilux, but the the price difference is just another class on its own!  Personally, it has always been the colur saturation and depthness in the B/W pics that make them a class on their own!

I agree.

In fact, not only talking about Zeiss, personally, I would say the standard lens is the least useful. I think, less than 5% of the pictures I take now, are taken with standard lens.
...

The questions here are market segment and ROI.

Market Segment:
Who are their target customers?
What kind of phtos do they take?
Why would then want to buy a Zeiss lens for their Nikon camera?

ROI
How much time and cost will it be for them to come up with a zoom lens computation that is up to the standard to have the name Zeiss?
How much will their target customers willing to pay for a new Zeiss zoom lens vs what is already in the market that is satruated with both high-quality and value-for-money lens?
How much is it to take the existing proven cumputation and just make a standard lens?
