Difference Between Nordstrand Fatstacks and Big Singles or Splits?

I know this seems like perhaps a dumb question, but does anyone know the real difference between the Nordstrand Fatstacks and Big Singles?

I have a Nordy with FatStacks, which is in a hot single-coil default setting. I never use the humbucking mode since I find the single coil mode so much more pleasing and aggressive. I know Big Singles have that aggressive sound, too, but, is there any difference between Big Singles and Fatstacks in single coil mode?

Either way, those FatStacks are just AMAZING...

Thanks!

If you do a search, you'll find there have been lots of threads on the differences between the different Nordstrand pickups. Try this one: Nordy Big Singles or Fat Stacks?

or this one: Nordstrand Big Singles Soapbars or Fat Stacks?

Thanks. I did a search but the queries for "fatstacks" didn't yield much. I suppose "Fat Stacks" would've been different as such.
