Well, that's a pleasant surprise, didn't expect to see this to show up on HN. I really love the photography style they feature, and it's often an inspiration for my own shooting.
My opinionated take: if you're going for architecture or ultrawide, just buy a 9mm lens and crop. My Laowa 9mm is my favorite lens by far. If you want AF, there's the new 10mm that recently came out.
Why not T/S? Correcting vignette is time intensive (unless the lens has an EXIF chip, but I don't have experience with that); image quality is not as good (I found the Laowa 15mm shift lens to just be straight up worse even when accounting for different focal length); they're heavier and take more fiddling.
Why not perspective-correct a 12mm? I found that it's impossible to compose shots well (corners end up cut off, composing the shot is difficult), and there were situations where 12mm just wasn't wide enough.
