Have all GM bats got the same sized edge on them according to a preset programme? Or is there different programmes for different weights or how does it work?

You can get GM+ bats in certain models and grades which are overall bigger and pick up like feathers. A team-mate has an old Icon 808+ at 2.14 and certainly doesn't feel it.

Colesy is correct. We have a standard profile for each of our 4 models, with a GM+ version in both the Icon DXM and Flare DXM, which are bigger (in profile) than the standard versions, but as the swell of these two bats is high - they pick up very well indeed.

Have picked up a few of these myself recently and found them picking up staggeringly light given the size of them.  Feel like great sticks, but alas I need all my sovs at the minute.
