The Endurance casing is thick and not supple. I used it in the 650b 48 knobby for a 200 mile race because I didn’t want any risk of flatting. I consider it a good winter tire when flatting could be dangerous via hypothermia.
I have many of their other tires. Standard casing is decent. Extra light fantastic.
The Resolutes are indeed supple, and I’d say they rank near the standard casing.
That’s my take.

The Extralights have an exceptionally good ride quality. The Endurance have a noticeably stiffer ride - and don't really ride any differently than regular GK SK 43's and your average good quality gravel tire.
Here is my test of Barlow pass Endurance casing:
