That’s always been a difference between IH and Deere planters.
The advantage I feel that Case units have over John Deere units is the the offset opening disks not closing wheels. Also having pulling or trailing gauge wheels as opposed to pushing the gauge wheels save a lot of wear on the gauge wheel pivot points. Deere and aftermarket companies have tried tons of different ways to minimize this wear. We have recently installed Norseman gauge wheel arms on our Deere planters. They have a bearing at the pivot. The Case Ih planter we run is just now showing wear at the gauge wheel pivot and it is over 20 years old.

I certainly don’t use mine for making a living, but it slices the prettiest little groove thru the trashiest thatch and hard ground to boot.
