From what I cant tell flowable silicone lets people customize how much they put in the groove since they put it on themselves, if they want very little response they can fill it a little, if they want a lot they can fill it all the way while pads only come in one thickness unless the people making them make different pads with different thickness. Also there are pads that have certain textures (i.e Gen pads).
