Mike, there is always the Kowa Prominar 8.5mm f2.8 lens. Very expensive but
zero distortion.
In the ephotozine reviews, the Laowa tests slightly better. Remember, this is for astro, so wide open. Laowa is wider,
sharper, center and corner, and less CA.
Sample variation makes this kind of comparison less than authoritative, but
it's all we have.
Nice to see you are still lurking about. 😁

😁
Oly includes starry sky AF mode so why not a fast wide prime? Oly has the
non-rectilinear fisheye but how about a true 7 or 8mm f1.8?
