A rubber that has higher throw on topspin should have lower throw on chop because your racket is moving up on one stroke and down on the other.
So you tried to use some logic to give yourself a rubber that would be better for your BH since you use it differently. The thought was not bad. It just may not have the intended effect.
However, if you do very different things on FH and BH and know how you use each, it can be useful to get rubbers that specialize in what you do with each wing.
Ever thought of getting a rubber that excels at chopping for BH?
Anyway, your situation is different but it still may work out to the same scenario.
When someone does not know, specifically, what each wing needs that is different, it is often more useful to use the same for both sides.
If you know how the two wings differ and accurately assess a rubber for each side that will be useful, then that is totally different from how so many people guess or pick arbitrarily rubbers for each wing.
Since my sister does the same things with FH and BH and her BH has about the same force and power, she is better with the same for both sides.
Many people, when the BH is a little weaker would be okay with a slightly softer version of the same rubber for BH.
Like: T05 FH + T05fx BH
or
Vega Pro FH + Vega Europe BH
As two simple examples.
But if you don’t know how the two wings differ, often, players would be better off using the same rubber for both sides.
Unless you are using H3. But then the softer 37 degree sponge on the red H3 still may be what would make the most sense for BH unless you know something else that really works well for your BH.
BTW: you might try one of those red H3 37° rubbers. That may be excellent for what you do with your BH. H3 is actually pretty darn good for chopping and has great dynamics from soft touch to power loops.
