We will not make you sell your JB4
In short, JB4 is/will not be required with bootmod3 and you can run the two in tandem where you use the JB to move your boost around using the steering wheel. Lots of people like that feature as it gives them a convenience control feature over boost. At the same time when the flash tune is set for a given octane and modifications all you need is control over your foot hammering the throttle
Different modes and gears also can be set for different boost levels right in the flash but it'd require some custom tuning know-how and it isn't as easy or convenient to do as it is with the JB and its mobile app.
Flashing with bootmod3 calibrates the engine computer the way factory intended. Everything form fueling, ignition timing, boost/load targets, valvetronic, exhaust flap settings, overrun (burble/sound tuning), cold start, various limits for torque levels, etc you name it are adjustable in the flash. Piggybacks don't have the ability to program the DME but they can influence the systems in realtime externally and play a convenience role as a secondary system for boost mapping, meth control, secondary port fuel injection control, etc for many.
In our neck of the woods we like to call flashes front-end flashes and piggybacks backend controllers given where/what control is possible with each, not the other way around, but that nomenclature is up for debate LOL
