Default Sport plus vs sport response button?

I searched the forums didn’t find a thread in regards to this so I figured I’d pose the question.
At first I had the impression sport response is just a quick way to access sport plus mode but then while actually being in sport plus mode and pressing the response button there is an immediate difference as the rpms kick higher so does that imply then that while in sport plus mode and activating the response button you get an extra kick even still on top of the sport plus mode?

My understanding is that it preps the turbos and let's you access all the electricity (if applicable) in order to give you as fast a boost within the 20s - so a point to point burst. It doesn't lower the suspension, stiffen dampeners etc. Push to pass rules

So would that imply better performance numbers for 20 seconds, one would think at least? How about doing launch control with response button activated?

I like where your head is at!

Launch control is designed from a standing start, so revs then drops the clutch. Push to pass has a slightly different function. Suggest you find an air strip and have fun finding out!!
