I dont know that much about bokeh, but wouldn't this considered to be a bad one?

yep, I think so, because of the pronounced outer rings

this one I'd consider as smooth, beautiful bokeh ( taken with the same lens! )

Look at the crazy prices people pay for Meyer Trioplan lenses to get the same look... some people really want that look.
