Until such time as you can separate the whole from the parts with a required degree of accuracy, you cannot logically make any claim about the parts unless you have independent and verifiable knowledge.
Due to both knives being Spyderco branded, one can safely assume that they would require comparable percentages of acceptable HT output for each steel type. It is not like Spyderco would say that 98% of S30V have to be up to (Spydercos) standard, but only 93% of S110V have to be up to the standard that Spyderco set.
Because of this, we can infer that the vast majority of the knives put out is acceptable. This means that when you have two knives side by side, you have to assume that they are performing up to par. If one out-performs another, you can't immediately assume a poor HT (even though it is entirely possible) because the majority of them in the customers possession are treated adequately by the company. To just assume that one "lesser" alloy is performing less than another is solely due to a lesser quality HT, is asinine.
Some alloys have more abrasive wear resistance, some have less. Some have higher toughness, and some have less.
To say that a properly HT blade of S110V will have lesser wear resistance when compared to S30V (in clean cardboard) with all else being the same (geometry wise) is wrong.
TLDR:
Choose your alloy based on your needs and find out who HTs that alloy to the best of wallet.
Is S30V bad? It can be, but it isn't likely by now.
Is S110V bad? It can be, but isn't likely by now.
Same goes for 3V, 52100, M4, 440c, AEB-L, et al.
Some alloys like Maxamet may still have some growing pains, but I would equate that to the alloy still being "new to knives".
