I don't know that the pick-up points are the same, but I do know they are putting the Gen-X stub on Smackdowns now as a repair/upgrade.

Pickup points are not the same. IMO, the rack location is the most important part so bolting Gen X pieces on a Smack and fixing upper control arm locating points would not be worth the trouble.

I have a 2009 smack that I changed to a genx front in 2015. All I changed was the rack crossmember. It seems to work really well for me.

So what's the advantage/pros/cons for a Smackdown vs a Gen X?
