It has finally given me a full on rock tone with my Strat. Stacks great too.
surecthe PackRat is good, but the Rattler is stunning and quiet too.
The latest Andertons blind test video sold it to me.
Because, defacto, it isn't really all those different pedals. It is a copy/clone/re-imagining, which we seem happy to pay more money for than an original which started the whole ball rolling?
My opinion would be that a circuit is a circuit, and the JHS one along with a lot of the other clones/spinoffs are likely to be using good quality parts and faithful to the original spec, possibly moreso than the Chinese made reissue which will have much lower tolerances etc.
And hence you're getting 7 slight variations of a particular pedal that are as near as anyone can tell just as good as the originals they're based on.
You're absolutely right though, if you A/B an expensive clone with lots of options and end up using the 'stock' rat setting all the time, the original, widely available RAT 2 is probably the right call.
