AVCHD 1.0 spec only allows 24/25p not 30p as progressive. AVCHD progressive brings 50/60p. Difference in bitrate 28 vs 24 including audio take audio out 26 vs 22. Consumer cameras don't use B frames so all the additional frames are only interpolations. As your eye interpolates better this is a total waste of time. XAVC 50 MBps for 50/60p starts to be a bit better compared to AVCHD anyway as the GOP formats don't change the lower frame rates always performs better on consumer cameras
The camera you show here will perform better in fx mode 24 Mbps than in ps mode
The reason why the footage looks smoother for NTSC users has nothing to do with double frame rate but is because 24p suffers from 3:2 pull down and 30p is not supported in AVCHD
