FC is only 0 misses with any number of raw goods >10, while an SDG is awarded for <10 raw goods (SDG = Single Digit Goods). which can include misses. Because FFR uses raw scoring, it is better to be more accurate than to sacrifice accuracy for combo.

To add to this, the game internally counts FC's for songs that you've FC'd, even if the current best score is not an FC. Getting a better score that isn't an FC does not remove FC status, since people complained that it affects profile info.
