Your theory is correct in regards to the fact that the LP9 uses a heavy Connecticut broadleaf wrapper versus the thinner wrapper on the Tat and the overall toughness of the wrapper plays a factor, but FWIW, there is more to it, there are some differences in construction, bunching and rolling that make it even more unlikely for the Liga Privadas to crack.
