Dik, Nice image. I would have shot it at 1,000 to freeze the action.
Holy moly to the shutter speed but really good

I usually shoot high SS, but I think I'm gonna do more slow SS pans.

You are the creator. Whatever makes you happy.

Actually, what makes me happy is making other people happy enough with my photos to buy them.

Impressive panning.
I went to a lot of trouble to make it easy.
Around 20% of the people who look at my book of 13x19 prints, (while I'm shooting at the dam), buy one.
Other than that, I have done no marketing.
I'm seeking a web savvy partner to monetize my birdshots.

20 percent return sounds good.
Good luck with a savvy web partner.
You make an excellent point about seeking an interesting artistic representation, not necessarily "sharpness" at the expense of all other values.
I have attached two photos of swallows. Both taken with SONY A7R4. One is a young fledgling in static position with good light and crisp focus, using SONY 200-600 mm, 1/2000, f 6.3, ISO 800.
The second was taken last night at dusk, same A7R4, but with a low cost SONY 18-135 at f 6.3. Adult swallow in rapid flight, barely able to track through viewfinder. Poor light, very fast shutter speed (1/2500), ISO of 6000. Very noisy. Image was almost totally black. Minimal processing in LightRoom, mostly boosting Exposure to 4.4, and minimal noise reduction of luminance by 11. But the noise added an interesting texture to the photo. As a Neuro-ornithologist, it's not great IQ, but sort of intriguing. Download to see texture.
