Hello Pierre,
If the tests have no clear winner then no one is superior by far and
your personal use should dictate the investment. If distortion is the
most important issue to you go for the one with less distortion, if
close focussing distance is important choose the prime. If versatility
is your goal choose the zoom.
I own a Tamron 20-40 and love it's versatility, especially when
travelling but I'm currently looking out for a second-hand prime (20mm
or 24mm) with closer focussing distance and less distortion.
