I think its some things work well, possibly very well

 

with Method A , but not everything .

 

remember the days were you had to have 45 gallons of water to cook 1 lbs of pasta ?

 

and you had to put oil in the water ?

 

FastaPasta will give you identical pasta , once you understand the water::Pasta::Cooking time

 

and you save the small amount of water from the FP :  gives you very starchy water to

 

add back to the cooked pasta.

 

Clean up ?    forget spending time cleaning out that oily large pot you used to use.

 

meat , for me , unless ground (  i.e.Ragu , ) ends up noticeably better SV

 

And I have not done a cubes of meat rags yet 

 

but Id bet the SV rib meat  + iPot sauce ( aromatics , tomato , herbs and spices )

 

would have a better mouth-feel and chew

 

than just the meat  in the iPot at one time. , pasta your chosen method.

 

but that's a lot of time , unless you do SV in bulk , to make the rag  in portions

 

then freeze.

 

then there is the Thorny Issue of the Meat sauce you get

 

from short ribs cooked ' braise '  so flavors exude from the meat

 

and make your meat sauce.

 

" If its not in the Meat , it better be in the Sauce "

 

that why higher temp cooking of meat

 

is better the next day   some jus prefers to get back into the meat.
