Well , anything's an improvement over a bad one. And I'm thinking stock track bar....with non stock larger tires. I think they transmit more energy ... If I roll a stock tire to you, vs. a 12x 15x 33, it's gonna be a lot harder to stop the 33, no matter how it's moving ..forward or side to side.
If you have more rubber and it's quality stuff and you get progressive control from it you're going to be happy... And if you have less rubber that is real dense and it holds the front end centered well, you are going to be really happy.
I tend to think the firmer set up works well with big tires, and love the way my TJs handle bumps with larger tires... At the same time I may tend to like a firmer steering feel.
Also, it is in the category of the kind of nuance many people wouldn't notice or care about .
Also... I tend to make uneducated conclusions... For instance thinking if a bushing of that design works so well on a big truck, it's got to be the bomb on a TJ. In no way do I have the knowledge to make that correlation.
The bottom line is a quality bushing, in any configuration, that's as dense as stock or denser, should perform well.
