Did you ever find out any new info?

No, haven't looked at it since they locked that old dev-mode - too much on my plate, i've been developing few different methods of unlocking gen2 so they don't lock us out if one fails.

that's not entirely true, voice weight might be different depending on the source iirc
stereo output of a synth might have different voice weight than a stereo output of a pad on a drum track despite both theoretically using two channels of polyphony.
don't really remember specifics as I was dabbling in it for a very brief moment but it is something more than a straight up voice count.

You just said the same thing in a different way.
