I find wides a lot harder to use than normal/tele lenses.  With a 
longer lens you can "pick out" really interesting parts of the whole 
scene.  A wide angle lens insists on "getting it all in" so the 
entire scene has to "work".

OTOH when you do find that perfect scene it helps to have a nice wide 
lens to capture it with :)  I wonder what a 30mm rectilinear for 
Pentax 6x7 would cost (and weigh).
