There is a balance of the both, after all it is Amplitude Modulation. If you run a very low dead key, it looks real impressive on the S meter, but distortion becomes a problem. Ok so some guys say they can live with a distorted signal, but another thing to think about is you have to have enough Carrier to GET the signal to the other station. If the other guy has a solid carrier, and 100% modulation, he will cover you.

Make sense?
