Right, you get 2/sqrt(3) more voltage, and you get to use a PI loop so you get all the benefits of the ease of controlling a sepex DC motor. Throttle proportional to current doesn't work very well with V/Hz. It's much easier to keep a good handle on exactly how big the current is getting with a PI loop.
