Constant pull vs lockout


I am a new stringer trying to move up from my Klippermate. With everything I have read cant you just add a couple of lbs to a lockout and get the same result as a constant pull?

If I was able to figure the exact amount of difference lets say I strung my racket at 60 lbs and I knew I had to string the lockout at 62 for the same tension would the rackets play the same?

And at 3.5 could I tell the difference?

Could a customer or a better tell the difference?

Does a wise unit make a lockout into a constant pull?
