Jazz basses, what's the point?

Nate Navarro just dropped a P vs J bass battle video. P is the clear victor in my ears:

I love a jazz at home and used to tour with a Stingray and a 70s J as a backup. Whenever I switched to the J the bottom end and any thump fell out of the band. I'm pretty sure it was driver error but it always struck me as a potential issue. Doesn't stop me buying them and selling them though!!! I love the sound for recording.
