As was discussed in question Is armor's DR additive and covering whole body?, the armor rating seems to be total, not for each body part separately.

Supposing that's correct, what exactly does 'reduces limb damage' effect in Strengthened armor mod do? Reduce incoming damage to a limb for some percentage? Is a piece with this mod better than a piece with a higher armor rating but without such mod?
