^^There are a lot of smart guys on this forum. Maybe one of them can explain this.

Buckets and shims are not an either/or choice. They are two parts on the shim-type adjustment design.

Only self-adjusting valve designs require no adjustment. A self-adjusting design would be hydraulically self-adjusting — not often used on high-revving sports cars
