You need to think through the complete problem. Sure you can move the 100uF capacitor to the other side of TPS2051, but you still need a bulk capacitor on the IN side because of HDMI and VIO requirements. The peak current is based on the capacitor ESR and not the size of the capacitor. The size of the capacitor affects the duration of the peak current. So, given that you still need a bulk capacitor on the TPS2051 IN side, you have achieved little by moving some of capacitance to the TPS2051 OUT side. Also, cost of component is only one part of the total cost. Carrying additional inventory, cost of placement, engineering changes, testing, managing another version, can sometimes be far higher than the cost of the component. Anyway, even doing what you asked for will do little to reduce the peak current, so why go through the exercise. Doesn’t make sense to me.
