Yeah, I'm well into dick-waving territory. As long as you have at least seven blades and it's an odd number, it's perfectly good. It's all about the photos you take with it. The DC lens is probably worthwhile for some of the outdoor photos of people I try for, and my wife really likes the results it produces. But it's definitely an expensive and very specialised piece of kit, and not something to carry all the time. I have a tendency to spend far too much - most of the filters I use are more expensive than the 50mm f/1.8D lens.
In the end it's about the pictures you get out of it, anyway. Buying a lens for dick-waving alone rights is pointless. Nikon and Canon lenses are so good now that any argument about them is splitting hairs. You can get great pictures with any Nikon F mount or Canon EF lens from the last twenty years if you take make the effort to learn what it's good at and capitalise.
tl;dr you've got a collection of great lenses, and you're taking great pictures; don't bother with an expensive, specialised DC lens unless you have a very good reason to want the all-spherical optics and defocus control.
