Fox Racing Evolution / Performance / Factory differences between shocks?

Searching this question retrieved a number of threads on open bath vs. cartridge or FIT vs. open cartridge in Fox's fork lines, but I can't find a definitive list of differences between Fox shocks, where a Float CTD is going to have the same(?) damper in Evolution, Performance, and Factory.

So Kashima aside, what are the differences? My reason for asking is that Specialized (and perhaps some other big designers with deep product lines) has gotten more thorough at spec'ing Evolution on a 'Comp' model, Performance on an 'Expert' model, and Factory on an S-works model. Is this a little marketing trick to make the spec more consistent looking, and make the middle model appear more valuable? What could be in a Performance shock that isn't in the Evolution? If anyone has researched this, it would be cool to know. Thanks.
