I assure you uncoated lenses do not show more shadow detail than a coated or multicoated lens.
The shadow detail is the same or less, but it is raised in tonal value giving the false impression there is more below it which is really not there.
Additionally the highlights block, have no contrast, and no printable detail.
I have run experiments with red scale elmars, uncoated elmars, and summars all with the same scene on the same roll of film.
