C-hing, just sharing my experience. At the end, we each find our own way and what others say don't count.
A lot of my own experience is in putting a single subject in the foreground (most commonly a person). I'll try to base my discussion on this. But then of course there are infinitely more ways to compose a picture and lenses can be used in an infinitely numbers of different ways.
(My humble student-standard sample pics have mostly been posted before.  )
35mm for me is "standard wide". Foreground exaggreation is very subtle. For me, it is suitable for a single subject with some background, but the attention remains on the subject. This is especially easy to achieve witn large aperture, e.g. f/1.4. (See pic 1.) Sometimes I use it for multiple subjects with unobstrusive background. (See pic 2.) For me, this focal length on full-frame is the best for environmental portraiture. However, 35mm is not a standard portrait lens because it does not create a human eye-like perspective like a 50mm standard lens, which is essential for the "drama on canvas" style of Henri Cartier-Bresson.
28mm for me is proper wideangle. There is some foreground exaggeration but if suitably controlled (i.e. leveled) the effect is not too distracting. However, if a single subject is placed in foreground, the background will be wide and illustrative and compete for the viewer's attention with the subject. (See pic 3.) For me, this lens is best used for multiple subjects who pull the viewer's attention in different directions, creating tension and balance. (See pic 4.) Winogrand's works are classics.
21mm is the beginning of superwide territory. Foreground exaggeration becomes the main feature of photos taken with this focal length. The exaggeration will focus attention on a single foreground subject even without a large aperture to blur the background. For me, it is good for a caricature-type shot of a single subject (or a single group of related subjects) in the foreground. (See pic 5.) It is a challenge to use for multiple subjects because the wide angle of view makes the scene very difficult to control. (See pic 6.)
C-hings are of course free to disagree and criticisms are most welcome. This is all subjective and I believe there is no right or wrong, just creativity.
