The 4000s rubber seams softer and stickier, and junk can get on them and gradually work their way in. I still get occasional flats with the Krylion, but they tend to be a single poke from a long wire rather than a slow bore from a tiny shard.
I still wouldn't expect moving to either to more than double your mile between punctures, so you still might want something tougher.
