Is there a reason not to Vaal orb level 20 gems?

The only gems I wouldn't vaal orb are the purity gems. You're losing a lot of max res if they drop to 19 and gain very little from quality/21 gems. It can take a while to get 20 again so I don't consider it worth it.

Every other gem should be vaal orbed.

20/20 gems with a Vaal Orb equivalent are super risky to vaal.

eg, a 20/20 spectral throw turning into a level 20 Vaal Spectral Throw is fucking beyond bricked, for little potential gain.

you get what, .01 dmg effectiveness if it hits 21, or 1% attack speed if it hits 23Q? (23q is max)
