Both run the same sys and have exactly the same fixes and problems at any given time unless one of the devs of said rom got a jump on a problem and re-releases rather quickly but Juicy's is a little more stripped down and includes basics like pim backup (which should have been included in the stock rom ^^) and mighty goes further by adding things like gyrator etc. You should basically be looking at the list of extra apps installed. When there's a driver update released if one cook picks it up and says it made his pie taste better then every other cook will do the exact same the next day.

Yes and no...
For example, it comes down to personalization as well. A small example would be a comparison between mine vs. juicy. Juicy prefers more a stock feel when it comes to the programs menu and such, therefore leaves the stock width in the scrolling bars and such. I myself prefer having a tad larger scroll bar hence making it thicker, plus making the program icons smaller and adding more per row, hence being able to "see" more of what's on the screen.
Little things like that make a user difference.
Theres a bunch of these differences throughout our roms. When it comes down to driver updates, the new ones aren't always the best ones. In most cases the new drivers tend to cause bugs and sometimes not. In my roms I prefer to stay with what works best rather than venturing off to the newest stuff every time. Most of the newest drivers are ripped from other devices (not the diamond) therefore you get some incompatibility issues.
Hope this helps.
