I have been musing on this and can't quite figure this out. But I'm not sure I know the right answer so thought I should throw this out for further comment:
Seems like more lift in a shorter number of degrees would be higher speed ramps, and put more pressure on the valvetrain during opening...? (And I am only looking at the advertised vs .050" durations, as I don't have other numbers like .200" durations.)
Now, if the opening lift occurs sooner, and the closing ramp starts later, then maybe going 'over-the-nose' will be gentler, and less need for heavy springs to fight float?
Then on the closing, the deceleration at the end of the ramp would be harsher and higher pressures again, so it seems.
I am just trying to understand how this higher lift, short duration cam would be as easy as a low ramp, and the only place I can see is 'over-the-nose'
