If I might add, as far as I have seen and learned, the MP is earlier and will handle more oil than the Buzz or the BRB. It needs mor eoil to operate at peak efficiency. The Buzz and BRB need less and will hook more on less oil, while the MP may burn up in the midlane, DESPITE the fact that it is a pearl, if it does not see enough oil.
The core of the MP, together with its coverstock, gives it a lot more backend, WHEN IT HAS SUFFICIENT OIL, and more continuation, because of that flare. The Buzz and BRB get their hook mostly from the cover and the core's low RG differential (and thus, less flare) ALLOWING it to reserve its energy for the backend.
(FYI the Big Kahuna acted the same way, compared to the NS and NS2: less flare equals more energy retention for a more sudden reaction to the dry part of the lanes.)
So when the BRB and Buzz hook more than the MP, (for the same or similar drill) there's less oil than is proper or ideal for the MP. When there's enough oil for the MP, the Buzz and BRB will probably skid 55 feet before making the turn.
