Full floaters are desirable because you can break a axle shaft and your wheel wont fall off,you can stilll drive home,assuming you have another axle turning the wheels.Thats why the offroaders want them.Gov-lock is junk,no way to improve IMO,replace it with a detroit locker or something similar.Semi Floaters are just junk,you break a axle and bye bye goes the wheel and tire.
