When you're doing the same thing as the reference drivers, use the standard control. If you're doing something strange and different from the reference drivers, ask yourself why you're doing it, and whether doing the same thing as the reference drivers wouldn't be a better idea. In this specific case, RX_POWER_PRESENT sounds like a pretty common thing to be able to sense. So if that's what you're doing, use that control. If your sensor can't detect RX_POWER_PRESENT, complain to your hardware design team. :)
