Assuming they both will last 40k miles

and that they both are recommended to be inspected/replaced at that interval, then why go with the more expensive bearing? I realize that there is no data proving the cheaper bearing is a comparable solution, but there is also no evidence proving it is not. 40k intervals IMO is way too short but if results prove that both bearings will last through that time period, what are you getting by spending the extra $400-500 on the more expensive bearing? If it was guaranteed to last 100K miles or so it might be different as I drive too cautiously to burn up a clutch every 40k.
