Looks like it is for a special case. The SetText() documentation says "You may wish to use this function instead of TextMeshPro.text if you need to concatenate a string with values and trying to avoid unnecessary garbage collection.". digitalnativestudios.com/textmeshpro/docs/ScriptReference/… I always thought it was for historical reasons as setting Unity's Text.text property was the way to do this before TextMeshPro.

I have expected TextMeshProUGUI to be an inherited from GameObject type. Thanks for clarifying, it was really helpful. Do you refer to text performance in the last paragraph or do you mean something else? I would appreciate a link.
