$27 each. I think I'll use film.

Difference in ratings between standard and 'low loss' configuration
seems to be even thermal coupling between components and the board -
 resulting in higher current rating for the same temperature rise.

This allows higher loss from the same basic package.

So not really 'low loss'.

There are performance issues for stacked film parts that address
the same issue, for lower temperature limits.

Not something that through-hole packages can easily address.
