Both the Sigma and Tokina will distort so if it's a matter of having to process the image in software to achieve the perfect image, does it matter that the Sigma distortion is slightly greater?

The reason the Sigma barrel distortion is greater is that it's 2mm wider at the widest setting which can make a huge difference when circumstances don't allow for an alternative viewpoint of your subject. For example the confines of interiors, both ends of that beautiful rainbow, the whole of Table mountain etc.
