The purpose of the mounts are to absorb energy generated from the torque of the diff during launches. A solid mount would transfer all that energy into it's attached components, instead of absorbing them. As a result, other parts of the rear subframe will have to absorb energy that they were not supposed to see with the non-solid mount, causing more problems in the long run.

I'm convinced the pinion snubber is the way to go.
