Tried a pole pruner with a bypass blade instead of an anvil on a big oak in my backyard

Switched to bypass on a 30 foot red oak branch that kept tearing with my anvil pruner and the cut was so clean it healed over way faster than expected. Has anyone else noticed a big difference with bypass on live limbs vs dead wood?

I mean, is it really that deep?

Does the clean cut really help with healing on oaks or is that more of a thing for softer wood like maples and birches?
