But RPM is ultimately what you care about and is the fan parameter

I forgot to add: I would argue that airflow restrictions play a substantial
role for both power consumption and noise, especially when trying to achieve
a specific fan speed. For power consumption, I don't even see how rpm would
play a substantial role in the first place since power consumption depends
on pwm, not on the resulting rpm (or airflow).
