Would anyone recommend using these as rear speakers in a 5.1 set up?
Sorry in advance for being a jerk: yes, I'm sure someone would. I however don't know nearly enough to say why most wouldn't other than what crutchfield says on the topic in regards to the best rear speakers: Bipole and dipole speakers. Many traditional bookshelf or on-wall speakers can be used as surround channels. You might also consider specialized bipole/dipole surroundspeakers, which have multiple drivers that fire in different directions. This creates a diffuse sound field that enhances the wraparound effect.
I'm an idiot when it comes to audio equipment in general.. I had 2 bookshelf speakers once, but then went to Logitech z623; I couldn't hook these to the Logitech sub, could I?

Yes, I have some b-20s as some rears speakers, those are preferred over the s-20 when setting up Atmos, if no Atmos then s-20 would be better choice

More efficient 90db vs 83db
maybe a tad lower FR 64Hz-23KHz vs 70Hz ~ 20kHz
my guess, if you had them side by side, would be hard to hear a difference
and you'd save a few bills
