"BOCDR does not work any harder if the signal integrity of the signal is worsened"
That may be, depending on the details of the implementation. However, the power consumption may vary as a function of the number of data transitions involved in actual execution sequences of gate outputs, so before I would believe such an assertion, I would like to see some kind of detailed design analysis or actual measurements of power consumption.
There is also some kind of equalization block involved in front of the decision circuitry. Without knowing how a given PHY actually works, it is possible this might be configured differently with implications on power consumption.
(Note: I am not a PHY expert, I'm more of a MAC expert. But I've been around enough to know what questions need to be answered.)
