I looked at the same datasheets and it's not clear to me that 1.3 Ghz
should be disallowed for consumer parts. Power consumption increases
with both voltage and frequency so having two OPPs with same voltage
does make sense.

Comment is false, you're explicitly excluding consumer parts via the
second element.

If you don't want to rely on the fact that only consumer parts should be
fused for 1.5 Ghz then please delete the comment.
