Auris tonearm upgrade for Sota Moonbeam?

I had trouble with broken leads on the OEM Rega 202 tonearm that is fitted on my Sota Moonbeam (2015 vintage) and was wondering if the new Auris W10 tonearm would be a useful upgrade. Thoughts?

I just found the specs for my Moonbeam have 222 mm from spindle to armhole mount, while the Auris is 211 mm according to this. https://positive-feedback.com/reviews/hardware-reviews/auris-audio-bayadere-3-turntable/
