Fixed focal lengths work well enough for the main and ultrawide modules since they often have high resolution sensors (on flagships, at least), allowing them to crop in if an intermediate zoom level is required.
A continuous zoom lens will give you the flexibility to frame your shot as you want it without having to “zoom with your feet” (which isn’t always possible). The question now is what range should the lens cover?
