Can anyone really tell the difference ? Head Graphene Speed Pro (Touch vs. 360)

Can anyone really tell the difference ?
These are basically identical.
Why does Head bother making such minute variations?

Huh, I know it's a different stick, but I really liked the Touch Radical Pro, felt somewhat flexible compared to the XT. I don't like how the RA went up from 66 to 68 with the 360. Not sure how that adds anything, it felt really solid at 66, but a bit too powerful and the PJ was a nightmare.
 
The beam was redesigned in the throat with the 360 speed update in addition to the redistribution of weight. It's noticeable for me--a bit firmer response, feels slightly more stable on off-center hits--but I wouldn't say it changes the racquet wildly.
