This calls for power measurements and analysis which may demonstrate
whether such a change is beneficial or not (and if yes, how much, and
under which workloads/setups).

Sadly I don't have the equipment to perform those measurements, which

must include numbers...

Again, Rafael and Alan, thanks for your time and attention.
