I voted to keep both, but so far I have no intention of getting the new 180mm-600mm. My decision is based on the lenses I now use with my Z9 and that I need a focal length greater than 400mm:
24-120mm f4 S
100-400mm S
500mm f5.6 pf F mount
70-200mm f4 F mount
F and Z mount 1.4x tcs.
For me, a Z mount 70-200mm f2.8 was not needed. I opted for the 100-400mm S to cover that range. And since I have and use the F mount 500mm f5.6 pf I cannot justify getting the new 180mm-600mm.
And if I owned the S mount 400mm lens, my vote may have been different.
For my kind of shooting, often the prime tele is my first choice over a zoom tele.
