The Thater is just on a higher level of softness on the face. I find it best as the ultimate finisher brush to apply full and luxurious final coats of lather for all the razor passes. I don't mind it's large size because it feels just soooo beautiful and soft that I want as much of it on my face as possible! :D
I have used both now and will do a side by side test soon. But hose are my inital thoughts.
