You are right, the modes of action are identical.
Potency, and half life are the only major differences.
Ritalin abuse in my area is much much worse than cocaine abuse.
I would imagine that it could cause some of the same neurochemical changes associated with cocaine.
I took 20mg and I found that after a few months, it was like taking nothing at all. I literally would start asking myself weather I took it or not, because I wasn't sure.
