'Tis all the same or similar dynamics at work i suggest i.e. inconsistent system movement during the bullets barrel time.

I can put forward thoughts on FTR front rest dynamics as that's what I'm most familiar with.

Now I'm F Open and wish Rod D was at my club to teach me about front rest stuff !! For now I'm just going heavy with the gear to get the inertia value hi and keeping stuff slippery to lessen the rest movement during recoil with a free recoil technique.

assuming we aren't talking about noodles, I can see some give or vibration absorption being a good thing...its probably all tied up in terminology as nobody states a number around stock stiffness as a reference for example...
