Rush & Cash vs regular tables

I played roughly 50k hands on regular tables at NL25 (+also 20k or so on NL10), but recently moved to Rush & Cash (about 18k hands). What's your opinion regarding profitability, which one do you think is better to play? My observations so far:

Regular:
- rake is at 9.06 bb/100 (didn't include additional 1 bb for BBJ). It's 5%, capped at $2, so it will max out at pots of $40+ (160 bb+)
- it's hard to get any reasonable money from leaderboard, maybe $3 or so
- Happy Hours provide 1.5x points

- First Deposit Bonus works here, it is supposed to be 20% RB, but unfortunately it is also affected by PVI, so if your PVI is like 0.45, then your effective RB out of this is only 9%
- Hands per hour - not easy to get it close to 500 hands/hr, you need to keep playing ~~ 7-8 tables to achieve that, can get quite hectic
- Table opening - you need to wait in queue, scan for fishy players - it may take up to 20-30 mins before you will open up 6-8 reasonable tables. And once you are there, you are kind of "forced" to sit for many hours without a longer break - else your
- Table selection - probably the biggest advantage of regular tables - you can find some fishy players there, though it's not like they are there left and right
- steal success % is low, 42.3% @ 2.4 bb opening
- can't rathole + you may get a 15 min ban to join othe tables if you join the table and leave it after only one orbit

Rush & Cash
- rake is at 6.5 bb/100 (didn't include additional 1 bb for BBJ). It's 5%, capped at $0.75 only (much lower), so it will max out quite early,at pots of $15+ (60 bb+)
- leaderboard is quite weird, cause it's easy to score the bottom places, which pay a really decent $8. If you play 2h during Happy Hours+ a bit more, this means ~~ 30% RB, provided you will be almost at the very end of the board (more on this later)
- Happy Hours provide 2.0x points
- First Deposit Bonus doesn't work
- Hands per hour - 220 h/hr at a single table, so playing comfortably 3 tables and you can easily get ~~ 650 h/hr or if you feel like grinding a bit more - 4 tables @ 880 h/hr
- Table opening - it's just instant. You can start, finish or take a break at any point
- Table selection - you can't do that here - that's the biggest difference

- steal success % is much better, 50-51% @ 2.4-3.0 bb opening
- playing more often at deeper stacks can be risky, but you can "rathole" (i.e. say you have 200 bb -> close the table -> open a table again 100 bb = means you have cashed 100 bb out). No penalties

- Money drops / splash pots - the unique feature of R&C tables. Every now and then (every 400-500 hands or so) the table will turn orange, the Rush & Cash text will glow up and some money will be added to the pot.

Now, usually it's gonna be 10 bbs, but can be up to 600 bb (I personally saw 20 bb once). Bigger splash pots should not only land directly in the pot, but also to players. There are also Rush & Cash Fridays - when the table will be orange AND there will be a GGPoker Team member at this very table -> the amount of money dropped will be doubled, i.e. min. 20 bb, but even up to 1,200 bb.

During a 2.5k hand session, you should witness 5 of these. If you can win two of them and also take some losses into consideraton (i.e. you limped, but had to fold when someone went all-in) - you should still earn like 12.5 bb additionally, which translates to ~~ +0.5 bb/100
Also, any splash pot won means +10 points to leaderboard

=============================================================================

Speaking of the R&C leaderboard itself, it structure is quite weird. Imo you either place yourself somewhere at the very end or you just go for it and aim at like place 11th or higher. The RB values are estimated based on my 2h session during Happy Hours + another 1.5h session. Actual number may vary, but the distribution should remain similar.

So, with all of that being said - it looks like R&C tables are superior over regular tables or do you think otherwise and if yes, then why?
Do all of the advantages make up for more reg infested field? Though there are some fish there as well, but certainly less than at the regular tables.
