I can't comment on 20# mono since back in the day the weight of the equipment needed to fish it was so unappealing I put my over rung Lami1321L and 706 to bed, switched to conventional tackle, and never looked back. The rapid reduction idea has, however, been tested by Fuji with mono (actually Fluorocarbon which is even stiffer) and seems to work well. This video shows its effect.
