In almost 18 years of military service, it has been my experience that the write up for the award has more to do with what award is given as the actual service or duty performed.
A good write up sells the medal to higher command. And in some cases, unfortunately, some commanders are much more or mush less inclined to write up awards than others. Award packages are a pain and some officers dont want the hassle. It's not fair, but it happens.
