Balancability (if that is word). The newt puts the camera on the side, RC centre rear.

You can get different sized secondaries for the newt to better illuminate your CCD

F ratio is the main diff though as you said, which implies focal length.
Either way coma correctors, reducers, barlows, powermates etc are needed to make one more like the other.
