Specialized Saddle Power Expert & Power Pro - Any difference?

Hi! I currently use the Specialized Power Expert Mirror Saddle on my 120mm XC/Trail mountain bike. Saddle fantastic, I love it!

I am now building up a Pivot Switchblade (160/143mm) for my bigger bike. I ordered the same saddle, but in the mail came the Power Pro! Haha free upgrade. Or is it?

Should I return the saddle and swap to the expert that I am familiar with? Or will the Power Pro feel and fit the same? The Pro has lots of holes that dirt and mud could get caught in.

Thoughts on if these saddles feel the same and if the Pro is OK for enduro style mtn biking?

With the traditional padding, the carbon base on the pro was much stiffer than the experts nylon base. I wouldn’t want the holes in the pro 3d for off road. It just won’t clean.
