Considering your Hammer is the pivot point, the further away the Mainspring is from it creates the mechanical advantage, like a longer lever. The "New Style" is where Sig did away with pinned Strut assemblies, around 2000 or so.
I don't believe the E2 has any "real" advantage over the regular "new style". It seems it was merely to make the new style mainspring assembly compatible with the E2 grips.
Regardless the strut assembly configuration, the hammer still pivots at the same point, the hammer strut pin is at the same point in the hammer and the strut is anchored at the same point on the frame. While there may be some difference in how "smoothly" the designs function, I see no difference in the mechanical advantage.
