DislikedMedici,
I am in the middle of my investigation so I have no proper conclusions as of yet (and probably never will).

It is like a local optimum get reached more swiftly. This would make sense as there is an inefficiency developing and is closed quickly by other market participants. This would also explain why most strategies cease to last for ever.
