Jim,

I'm not sure if the larger bottom plate begins with the Bb or the A. The A
has it, for sure, and all keys lower than A have it. The difference isn't
huge, maybe a mm or two higher on the lower cover. Your mouth will feel
the difference but your hands won't.

The BH profile is thicker than the LO, even with the higher cover.
