From what we've observed in the field, whatever performance that may be gained with an ARS rubber/SCS combo is always outdone by a V shape rubber like the firefly or PDI-W
I can see it making a far more noticeable difference if it were somehow used with a flat rubber, but it seems the thickness of the hop rubber's bump absorbs whatever radius is supposed to be deformed into the rubber...

Wouldn't a REAPs bucking be exactly what an SCS should be? I've used both and no noticible difference myself - compared to a Prometheus Purple and nub.
I have also tried shaving off the mound on a sleeve to use the SCS - you're exactly right by saying the sleeve isn't thick enough to engage the actual bb.
