What is the difference between the slick and the cx version?

I'll avoid the Captain obvious tread issue. Having used both the slick and the CX I prefer the CX by far. Why? (subjective mind you) I find the CX handles better, better grip, rides smoother and is faster.

Normally tread pattern on a road bike tire does nothing but the cx has a coarse enough trend pattern that I suppose it is possible that it does something.

It seams odd that Vittoria would release a new product that is inferior to the existing one? Unfortunately their website says almost nothing about the products or how they compare against each other. I use the VXII tubies and like them a lot. Would love to know how the slicks compare.
