Default LS6 vs LS3 vs Discus question

Looking at sailplanes. Is a 15m LS6 really any better
than a 15m LS3? Both are flapped and have 40:1 glide
slopes. In fact why does the LS6 have a better handicap
than say a Discus, when the Discus is 2 points better
in the glide? Is the 15m LS6 any better than an LS3
or Discus??
Thanks

Kay
