If full fat milk is better than low fat, is jersey milk better than either?

So we've switched to from low fat to full fat dairy after reading about that study that shows a correlation between low fat dairy and zits but no correlation with total dairy intake.

but we have two dairies in this town that make pure jersey milk which is 4.8% fat! Normal milk is 3.5%. So is that 30% better than normal milk?
And, possibly more to the point, jersey cows are A2. They make a different type of casein from the casein Holstein cows make and most milk in western countries come from Holsteins or related cows.
Some people on this forum have reported good results with goats milk and goat's milk is A2. The A1 gene is a modern mutation and it's claimed (byt the A2 milk company of course) that A1 casein causes all sorts of inflammatory problems. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A2_milk

Well, I'm gonna try strictly jersey milk (one of these dairies makes cheese and cream too) and see what happens. Jersey milk is delicous (like anything that's 5% fat I guess) so it won't be a hardhship.
