A 5 kW tube run at 1.5 kW could be made more linear than something run closer
to
it's maximum. As the tube ages, the drop of emmision would be less of an issue
than with a tube run closer to it's maximum. As someone else said, if you have
the parts, that would be another reason for using using a 5 kW amplifier.
