In general you want to run regulators at the lowest voltage you can,
this tends to reduce power consumption.

This is obviously broken even according to your analysis above - if you
have consumers for which 2.8V is too low allowing other consumers to set
even lower voltages is not going to help as soon as they start doing
that.
