If you have a P72 (GSR) and it's an OBD1 (92-95) ECU, it can be chipped and used with the S100 exactly the same as a P28 would. If you already have an ECU that will work great, why buy another?
P28s are used so often because they are really, really common and they're almost identical to the P72 and P30 but with less functionality. So they make a cheap and plentiful tuning ECU. However, if you already have a P72 or whatever, there isn't any use in using anything else, because you already have outputs for the GSR manifold's secondary butterflies (IAB) and a knock sensor, neither of which a P28 has.
