I think B/O makes more sense with digicam/dslr files (maybe also with
converted color film files?)than with silver film scans. 2400 prints
I've seen in exchanges have not been consistently as beautiful as
2200, 220, 1280 etc with various inks, but that may be because 2400
makes things easier, demanding less skill.
