I think the concept is "better seal better efficiency". After reading nearly every post in the Deepblue forums it's my understanding the Automag's dwell is mostly dependent on back-pressure and is consistent because of it. A lousy ball seal equates to less back-pressure which equates to longer dwell and therefore less efficiency. No ball is the extreme case. I never liked the idea of using it in the Punkwork's tests because of that very reason.
