TPS54550: Total gate charge (Qg) of Low side FET

Part Number: TPS54550

Tool/software:

Hi, in the datasheet you have the following statement:

"Total gate charge (Qg) must be less than 50 nC. Again, lower Qg characteristics result in higher efficiencies."

has this been included solely to ensure efficiencies are maximised or due to other concerns such as shoot-through?
