The main difference seems to be that statistical data about the
effectiveness of, say, factory rules are automatically collected among users
and centrally used to further increase rules effectiveness. 

I was about to propose something like that some time ago, but on Bayes
tokens. In SA probably it would be difficult to collaboratively apply rule
scores based on automatically reported effectiveness, since there are too
many versions of too many SA rules around, and too many way to configure
(and misconfigure) SA which may impair any attempt of metering a rule
effectiveness.

Instead, it is years now the basic Bayes engine didn't change. It is also
difficult to misconfigure (it works or it doesn't). We may attempt to
collaboratively share data on tokens it gathers...
