That sure didn't answer your question did it?

OK, I like the larger arch and top loading bobbin on the 201-2.

I dislike the end loading bobbin on the 15-91 as I have larger hands than the folks way back when had when the machines were designed. I find the end loading bobbins of the Singers and other makes to be awkward and clumsy.
I live with it, but when I'm sewing I use the machines with top loading bobbins far more than the end loaders.

partly you did. any reply or input is helpful. to ask you also, will 201-2 not be able to do FMQ ? never have experience with both so inputs from people who have used both machines will be much appreciated.
