I truly feel that my impact was lessened by the MIPS system.

I hit the ground hard and my head "smacked" the blacktop. But instead of feeling I was hit in the head with a 2x4, it was more like a soccer ball. It just felt "softer" than i expected.

I'm arguing nothing. That's for a different thread. I am saying that a deductible is a deductible. Your 'lame' comment was likewise unjustified.
