And probably the Nikkor gives better out of focus areas (haven't really compared).
Bokeh is about taste, anyway the Pre AI 35mm/2 has a bokeh a bit in the harsh side for the backgorund, it delivers bright rings around defocus circles, pointing that it overcorrects spheric aberration in the rear Out Of Focus. See the rings in the image.

In that review author paises its bokeh, again this is about taste... but clearly to isolate a subject from background we may want an smoother depiction.
A winner lens in the bokeh game is the Nikkor DC 105 or 135, this is the king, of course this is another focal range, but the as the DC ring is turned it shows what bokeh is about.
Another king is the Takumar 105mm 2.4 of the P67, instead rings it shows a bright center in the defocus disks, pointing spheric aberration is undercorrected in the rear out of focus field, this is one of the principal parameters for sound bokeh. Again taste is also in the midle...
But F100 is better than F90, F5 is better than F100 and so on...
"Better" is always relative... we may dislike the F5 weight... From the technical point of view, no doubt, about what is better: F5 > F100 > F90, but may compare in context of their own era... then the F90 probably wins over the F100.
The F90 as a good alternative to the F4 and it had a superior AF, while the F100 has assumed less that role, in part because of the F5 brilliance, in part because of a few reliability issues, remarkably the shot mode (single, multi, silent) dial, which was nothing seriuos when good service was available, still we always judge severely the least reliability concern...
but the F90X is way underrated. And thankfully so. shhh! Keep it secret!

there is no secret ! This is well known... it is a very good camera... still it has several compatibility issues...
> It does not start the VR function of modern lenses, the F65 does it...
> With G lenses Manual and Aperture-priority modes and not good, only minimum aperture can be used.
> AI lenses don't show the aperture in the finder, this is not much a problem, but it also lacks an optical focus aid in the viewfinder, so having renounced to modern capabilities it is not old enough to be optimal with AI glass...
A bit the F90 works perfect with the AF lenses of his era... probably there are more followers of the AI era or of the "modern" era than followers of the AF era, IMO this is the factor it is less wanted, but no doubt it is great camera, I have one and I love a lot to shot with it.
