LG WH16NS40 versus WH16NS60 ? Libre versus firmware update ?

Hi people.
Not sure this is the right forum, but here it goes anyway...
I need a new optical drive to rip and play (via MakeMKV streaming) BluRay movies. My media PC is an AMD 3600X running Fedora 35.
I don't understand the difference between the WH16NS60 and the WH16NS40. Why is one "official" and the other is only "supported" ?
Can I stream from MakeMKV if the drive is running in Libre mode ? Or does that require direct access to a drive running the correct firmware ?
Other than the streaming function, what other advantages does running a drive directly have over using Libre ?
Thanks
