I think we may over think this stuff and come up with reasoning to suit our desire that all behaviors are by design.

Code may have unintended consequences and if these bugs remain unidentified... they never get fixed. Until then, all we can do is cobble together work arounds.

I believe this is a bug based on the fact that if FMTX is invoked while the charger is plugged in, TX power level is unchanged. Unplug the charger and then plug it back in... TX power level goes in the toilet.

If it was designed to eliminate the cable as a possible TX antenna it fails when FMTX is invoked while already on charge or plugged in.

... a bug either way you look at it.
