Regardless of the count system, HiLo or otherwise, you decide how to play a hand based on an index for the play, for plays that have indexes that exist. The index from simulation has already factored into it the outcomes where the dealer busts. What additional gain is possible by knowing the bust rate? None. If you think otherwise, provide a concrete example. Under what condition would you use the bust rate information while ignoring the index? If you ignore the index, you are playing less than optimal.
