I was actually curious about the exact same thing - like what was the difference between adding a resin spacer, vs. adding a rubber spacer. I reached out to my contacts at SR Suntour on this topic early on in the review, and I have not received an answer yet.
I might be way off, but perhaps the rubber spacers provide a “softer” ramp effect, as in they can compress a little under air pressure (assuming they have air mixed into the rubber foam, like a marshmallow). That was the only thing I could think of.
