I have stated it before - The best thing about a Hammond B3 is that there
are no bad things in the sound.
It is one gigantic enhancer - every thing you play just sounds a tad better
coming out than what you put in.

Because it ads things like a pleasant click - nobody has it 100 % right yet
even though Nord C2d, Mojo (VB3), KeyB are real close.
Even the NewB 3 does not sound to have the same pleasantness about its
click as did the B3.

You have a lot of control of the first part of the note on a B3 - slower
attac gives longer not on sequence.

The B3 is lightning fast in its responce - no latency. except the time it
takes for the sound to go from the speaker to your ear.

And so on - The Leslie speaker adds more enhancement factors (to anything
connected to it)
