So a 90 or 105 mm lens only has the advantage of not blocking as much light,
and the 2.0 vs 2.8 is only effecting my viewfinder brightness, unless I have
to shoot at 2.0 in which case it will have less depth than at 2.8, which
would be the same depth on both lenses.

Thanks to Dr. Focus. I rather thought that was the case, but didn't feel 
confident stating it without calculation confirmation.

So in the case of a choice between 50/2 and 105/2.8, DOF is not an 
issue, only viewfinder brightness vs. working distance.
