Looking at the line moving into the LSX CWA and comparing the legacy MDA to the NMDA, a couple things are evident. The legacy MDA (not shown, couldn’t get the image to save properly) only identifies a couple mesocyclines further south along the line, but identifies them both as being in the lowest scan. The NMDA on the other hand identifies numerous circulations along the line, however none of these are identified as being at the lowest elevation slice.  Granted the algorithms typically struggle with linear features, but the MDA seems to be filtering out a lot of the noise and keying on the two stronger areas of rotation while the NMDA seems to be overly sensitive to shear along the line.

update…. as the line gets closer to the RDA the NMDA has now detected several areas of rotation which are marked with cross hairs. Again the algorithm does seem to be too sensitive with identification of mesocyclones.
