Actually, not sure there is any loss of efficiency due to the use of A-VSB. Being that there are a number of tools, if one just uses the DTR (Deterministic Trellis Rest) with the other enablers for SFN (which are about synchronization, no addition bits that I know of), where is the penalty? What are the compatibility issues?

And that not all receivers would be compatible?
