I was interested in knowing the difference in the 5.1 and Atmos mixes. I ripped each into a FLAC file. Here are the channel waveforms in Audition.Inexact, I know, but a very slight boost in surrounds on the 5.1, otherwise really similar first 6 channels. FWIW. I would expect them to sound really similar.

Yes, but it does have the extra audio coming from the height channels that may fill in the overall sound when actually listening in full Atmos, is that not correct?
I believe we need more folks here that have full Atmos capable systems to get to know this title well and chime in. I may sound critical on some aspects of this, but that is only from a 5.1 aspect; and it is an overall very fine album with much to like, and besides everyone's system is different.
