In FM mode, capture effect helps suppress the effect of "image" leakage. AM and (E)SSB modes have far more dynamic range and the 15 kHz IF image must be suppressed by some 10s of dB more than is required for excellent FM operation.

Are you speaking of receive performance or transmit performance?

Receive characteristics.

...
Is there something in the digital domain that I'm missing - aliasing, artifacts, etc. that effects this?

No, the issue is IF image rejection.
