If you ask the question, you couldn't possibly understand.

I would like some help understanding. I bought a BB plane at HD because
I had never used one, and I didn't want to drop $200 on one without
some idea of whether I would use it regularly.

After having used it some, I would consider a nicer plane if I had some
inkling about the difference.

I'm currently using it it plane some cherry boards that I glued
together. I am experiencing tearout if I'm going against the grain. I
think that happens with any plane, doesn't it? What would a LV plane
give me that a BB doesn't?
