   The Lacuna and Reply use BIUs, The Reply 60/80 also actually has an SSC.   
      
   _MAYBE_ the inclusion of a BIU turbo-diddles the performance of the 9-K?   
      
   A weg to investigate this angle would be to use a Type 3 ["M"] or a Type   
   4 ["N"] complex, both of which do not have a BIU.
