Whats the point of an Rboost if it gets the same thrust as a standard Raptor? Weight reduction?

Center engines on ship will be same as booster engines. This is basically Raptor 2.
Raptor Vacuum would be only variant. Tbd as to whether to commonize R-Vac with Raptor 2 (more thrust), keep same or tighten throat (more Isp).
Adding 3 more R-Vac to ship with max Isp maybe …
