Dutchy's observations may have some validity if all other aspects of the reed styles were the same. However, as a proponent of a "blended" reed, I believe that the dark sound which I achieve in my better reeds has to do with the proportionate thick and thin areas of the reed taking account of the fact that I will blend the heart to yield more fluidity of sound. That is, the heart may be a little thicker generally to accommodate the blending. A reed maker who uses the abrupt hump approach might have thinness somewhere else to give the vibration and fluidity which I achieve with the blending.
