There are some benefits to the 200R4 that are misunderstood, slightly lower first gear and a taller 4th gear.
The 2004R has closer gear ratios 1st 2.74:1,2nd 1.57:1,3rd 1.00:1,4th 0.67:1, Rev.2.06:1 2.
The input/turbine shaft while smaller only has one oil circuit only going halfway through it. While the 700R4 has a larger input/turbine shaft it has 4 oil circuits going all the way through it. It could be said that the 700R4 input shaft is more hollowed than the 2004R input shaft. That's probably the biggest misunderstanding about the two.

Really interesting. I never knew that. My only impression of the 200 was based in the problems it had when first rolled out. The explanation at the time was that the tolerances were not as consistent in the early models, but they said they fixed it. I never quite bought the story, but your explanation and the experiences of the other guys are helping to persuade me.
