TPS82130: Datasheet - thermal resistance values query

Part Number: TPS82130

Hello E2E Experts,

Good day.

Based on the application note, Resistance Junction to Board (in section 4, Page 10) is a more representative value for conduction-to-board cooled components than Resistance Junction to Case (Bot).
Good.

You state that Resistance Junction to Board includes Junction to Case (Bot).
Makes sense.

So I expect resistance to board to be larger than resistance to case (Bot).

What does not make sense yet:
For the component, I inquired about,

https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tps82130.pdf

the Junction to case (bot) is listed as 21.3 C/W

Junction to Board listed as 14.4 C/W

Other TI datasheets have the Junction to Board resistance higher than Junction to Case (bot), as expected.

Example:

Can you help me to understand?

OR

Is this an error in the datasheet?

Thank you for your usual support.
