Useful data is more than a bit rate.
Measurement priorities, valid updates per foot and decoding quality determine what reaches the drilling team. A higher transmission rate alone does not establish better information.

A vibration value needs a mechanical explanation.
Mass, stiffness, damping and excitation shape the response. A BHA adds coupled modes, contact and changing conditions; sensor position and frequency content matter when interpreting the measurement.

What gets lost when gamma is averaged?
Bulk gamma reports a response with depth. Azimuthal gamma retains information about its direction around the borehole, adding context when that direction matters.

Where was that gamma response measured?
Sensor offset belongs in the steering discussion. Near-bit measurements place formation response closer to the cutting structure; the complete data path still matters.
