I strongly disagree with "barely isolate motion at all." Just because foam does better doesn't mean the improvement from standard designs to pocket coils isn't significant.

Maybe pocket coil designs have changed since you used them, but our mattress transmits almost no motion from side to side. Or, maybe we do better because we have a platform bed with no need for a box spring -- those tend to just amplify motion.
