It makes a big difference if you are driving an amplifier, where the
precise amount of drive can be important.

I fail to see the need for a hundred steps between 0.1W and 10W on my
KX2, or steps between 1W and 100W on another radio. What difference is
it going to make to anybody whether you're at 71 vs. 74 watts? But a
1.5_dB or a 3_dB step? That's something I can use.

Here's a suggestion across the line, from the KX2 to the K3S:
I'd like to have the option to display and set transmit power in dBm
rather than linear watts. Conceptually, it makes more sense to me, and
it's a more meaningful number relating to S-units on the received side.
