How big of an issue is it having a housing with a 46mm threaded por vs 67mm? Aree there equally good WA and macro lenses available for both sizes (I know there are many for the 67mm)
46mm vs 67mm port

No.
If you are looking at Ikelite, some of their housings have a 47mm port. This gives the possible advantage of using either of two--TWO--2- different adapter assemblies they make. One converts the 47mm to 67mm threaded, the other converts 47mm to Inon AD bayonet.
You can possibly use step up rings from 47 to 67, I don't like that solution myself.
The 67mm port housings Ikleite makes generally work OK with 67mm threaded lenses, A Series Canons etc. There are no blanket answers, sorry. Get specific and using my magic slide rule I might be able to answer with a 60% degree of certainty. Ikelite has a chart that breaks some of this down and their chart is about 90% accurate, kinda.
