I really liked my Sterling AX40 so had been on the hunt for an Axis now I've ended up with two of them:
A standard Axis model, and a hardtail Axis Super Sport. I'm really liking both of them so far. I swapped in some stainless bolts on the floyd and locking nut on the Axis. I might see if I can change the wiring up on the Super Sport to try get a bit more variety from the different positions to help justify having two very similar guitars.
I worked on a VH1 style tone last night for the Helix.

One can't wobble, the other can
One can't easily tune down to C# the other can.
One is solid colour, the other has grain.
One has no tone control, the other does.
One has custom wound, one has... is that a super distortion?

Same shape, different guitars. Totally justified.
The bridge in the super sport is a FRED. Your reasoning seems solid, I'll see if my wife agrees...
