Good question.

I think that would be a personal preference to determine if it's worth the
time. B4B catch more areas as the article indicates.

That article covers the differences between the two validation protocols,
but does not quantify how much 'better' one is than the other. I am not sure
it is possible to provide it, but this information is what is needed to help
users decide which one to use.

Think we can all agree that BfB is better, but by how much? Is the extra
benefit worth the extra time it takes?

TIA,

To make a logical decision on that issue one needs quantifiable data.
Otherwise it is like choosing a hard drive because the name sounds
'better' rather than looking sat hard data.
