HGH Frag 176-191 vs AOD-9604, anyone running both back to back?

Right so I've been digging into the research profiles here on both of these and the mechanisms look nearly identical to me, beta-3 adrenergic stimulation, lipolysis up, lipogenesis down, no IGF-1 hit. But the dosing is different (250 to 500mcg twice daily for Frag versus 300mcg once fasted for AOD) and AOD seems to have that cartilage repair footnote that Frag doesn't.

Has anyone actually cycled both and noticed a real difference in fat loss, or is it essentially the same compound wearing a different hat? I'm tracking my weight weekly and my waist every fortnight so I can compare properly if I do swap. My main concern is the short half-life on Frag meaning I'd need two pins a day, which is a faff, but if the results are meaningfully better I'd put up with it.

Also curious if anyone noticed any difference in appetite between the two, because that would actually be the decider for me.
