Tom,
Where did you come up with one does not need to run more than 250 W using FT8?? 
 I have never read that anywhere in the literature I have read about FT8.
How many countries have you worked on 160M using 50 or so watts?  I have worked 
more than one country on 160M using 1500 watts feeding a pair of phased 
verticals and have received a signal report below -20db.  I highly doubt 250W 
would have been sufficient. 
A good rule is to run the minimum power necessary to make the contact; and yes, 
many times 250W is way more than you need.
