You could be right, for my skin type (oily and not very sensitive) a thin lather doesn´t much matter much when I DE shave (but that doesn´t mean I would go for it). When I SR shave I most often need better protection (more cushion and more slip), but I never went to barber school and I´m not a pro in any way. So please take what I say and think with a grain of salt
