LAUNCHXL-CC1352P: Power consumption of CC1352P vs. CC1310+CC1190?

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC1352P
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1190, CC1310, CC1352P

According to SWRA517, CC1310 + CC1190 needs 200mA to achieve 20db txPower, while CC1352P1 needs only 68mA. Apparently power efficiency in CC1352P1 improved a lot.

My question is: is there any reason to start a new design with CC1310 + CC1190/other RF frontend? I can see two: 1) Get a few extra DB txPower. CC1352P caps at 20DB, while CC1310 + CC1190 can go up to 27DB. 2) Reduce BOM cost. Both at the cost of increased power consumption. Is there any other possible benefit of CC1310 + CC1190?

Please offer some pointers. Thanks.
