Good questions!
Honestly haven't noticed that much of a difference, I did the exact same recipe as Forkish' biga recipe except I added more water to the pre-ferment and less to the final dough. Final hydration was still the regular 70%, it was easy to shape but not a notable difference to the other dough. Maybe teeny bit nicer to knead and pre-shape, I'll give it another go.
