Human heads can handle much larger g forces on the back of the hear or forehead. The impact gs that a head can take without concussion depends on axis of of the impact. Concussions often come from lower g force crashes that have an element of rotational acceleration, I don't understand why exactly, that's just what I read in a book. Mips is intended to reduce the rotational accelerations transmitted to the head. Good in theory and lab tests. Some mips helmets might be better than other as far as rattlieness, idk, just a thought.
