My understanding, acquired from someone who understood such things very well from sprinting and hill climbing, is that the Bilstein is a much more refined damper than most, in terms of design and operation.
Can testify to this having run Konis, then Spax, and now on 2nd set of Bilsteins (next time I will be getting them rebuilt!)
This is based on road use with the occasional track day.
