It isn't actually avoiding knocking down the grass, it is just not crushing it first with the large drive wheels. I too would have to see it to be sure on how it works, and I would have to sharpen up the one I have, and get it in top working order then compare them. My guess is that it would be superior in some aspects, but not in cost. My mower also has a bar out front, it is to keep you from running the spinning reel into trees and such. Yes it does knock over the tallest stuff, but I guess that's the price you pay.
Just a note, I haven't used reel mowers much (once on the front lawn), and I am not trying to push any of the mowers I listed, they each just had a bit of a different quality that I thought was worth listing. I just know enough to get me in trouble!
