I didn't try it yet...

Both are used to limit the access of the unlocks.
Limited access to the unlock is good because:
1.) It keeps the players motivated to play a hour longer and getting a new rank and a super cool toy (diabolo effect) = Sugar
2.) You can punishing a cheating player by deleting his stats and all his toys are gone = Lash
The BF2142 Stats-Unlock-System is better because you can test the Unlocks with the Fieldupgrades, and Fieldupgrades are only granted by giving and following orders.
Personally I don't need a Ranking in FirstStrike, but i would like to have the BF 2142 Fieldupgradesystem so you must follow Orders to get your Droids and Scanners...
