More change in lift per degree would be “faster”.

And some lobes just have smoother transitions from one portion of the lobe to another, even if the peak velocities are nearly the same.

This is where it’s best to be able to talk with someone at the cam supplier who understands those minute differences between the lobe families....... and what kind of affect it may have on your combo.
