...But do you good folk really think that a certain planet would be all that different in its indications, expressions, roles and attributes if it is ruling-operating in the different dasas in an individual?
After all each horoscope has only one sun, moon, Jupiter, Saturn etc., and their 'job description' (karmic signature?) is the same and kind of fixed at the moment of birth!
A somewhat related situation arises when folks insist that the so called parashari principles must not be mixed with the so called Jaimini principles, though both use the same planet as the spring-board in natal astrology. It is not as if the sun wears a Parashari hat during vimshottari dasa but a Jaimini hat when ruling chara dasa period!
A related curiosity question arises as to what happens to ketu in ashtottari, for instance!
Are we astrologers over-engineering the so called 'linear-logic' (works great and more often when designing bridges and machines, admittedly!) that we assume (simplistically?) to be the *engine* underlying astrology...
Love and light,

Nice question! and true that there is over engineering the so called works.
Ketu in asthtottari is most probably excluded for the same reason why it is excluded in charakaraks; so maybe sustenance and rajayogas as PVR mentioned.
But certainly, you will find that Jupiter in vimshottari behaves differently as compared to what it does in ashtottari or other dasas. For example Mars in ashtottari can give marriage while shani in vimshottari can do the same.
I do not use ashtottari much,but certainly the results of the planets are not the same for a planet.
