20T5 and blowin' up the EP case....again

I'd like to hear some input on the Nagler 20mm T5. I'm wondering if I'll be as happy with it as I have been with my 22T4... which I love and hate to part with. Why part with it, you might ask?
Bit of a long story, but the short version is that I decided to shake up my EP case a bit. After a year of ownership I've decided I'm just not happy with my 5mm and 7mm T6's. So I'm going to sell them and replace with Pentax XW's in the same focal lengths. I love my 10mm XW, so I figure it's worth a shot.
That's how it started. Then I got to thinking that I should tidy up the EP case some while I'm upgrading my shorter focal lengths. So I decided that I really should sell my 17T4 since, truthfully, I really don't use it much since I got my 13E a year and a half ago or so. And.... while I'm being honest with myself, my 31mm T5 doesn't really get used like it should. The main reason being that the background is just too grey for my liking because of the light polluted skies I'm always observing in. Folks have been suggesting to me for quite a while now that I'd probably be happier with the 26mm T5 than I am with the 31mm T5.
So I figure there's no time like the present and maybe I should get that deal done now as well. But replacing the 31 with the 26 means that the 22 will probably be redundant now..... which brings me ALL the way back around to why I'm inquiring about the 20T5.... which would replace the 22T4.
I don't recall reading/hearing much about this particular Nagler. Is it the dog of the bunch? A good performer? How does it compare to the 22T4? Any and all input is much appreciated!
To summarize the confusion above.... I'd like to turn my current 31T5, 22T4, 17T4, 13E, 10XW, 7T6, 5T6.......into...... 26T5, 20T5, 13E, 10XW, 7XW, and 5XW..... with the 20T5 being the big question mark.
