It is one factor.
The glass lines are more like wire than string so they have less friction they actually rattle when they move through the guides.
Diameter is also a factor like a thin spinning line will cast easier but it is not the thinness alone but also the way it lays on the spool. A fuller spool will cast further.
On a conventional reel the thinness of the line is incidental as the spool revolves the same no matter what the diameter and in fly lines there are soft fly lines that cast so sweetly that you never want to cast with a stiff one either for distance or short.
The glass line is an extreme case.
Silk is also an extreme case but both extremes cast so well that it would seem to me that the middle ground of stiffness is where the uncertainty lies.
Slick lines are smoothere adn have sell friction. Many intermediates have that kind of a feel.
IT is grain wt in the final analysis.
If the intermediate has the proper grain wt for the rod it will cast better and further and with less effort than a line that is the same brand of intermediate tbut has less grain weight on the same rod. That is, "Underlining," a rod.
The label means nothing only the function.
