The reductio would be 480-720 hours at hot tub temps. Ick.
Braises give you a different product than SV. A braised short rib for three hours and a 2 day SV short rib are vastly different. I prefer the braised rib actually. But that's not the point. You should try a comparison and see.
A better comparison is pulled pork. Done SV, it isn't over cooked meat drowning in sauce...who knew?
