Linux pacing has an initial burst of 10 packets, followed by pacing, so this is intended to allow for that style of sending.  In which case, I think "more than" is the right term?

I think the evidence you have in mind is some data presented early on that pacing + IW32 had lower losses than no pacing and IW10?  That gap largely is driven by the large initial burst out of quiescence without pacing, which would be mitigated by sending a 10 packet burst and pacing the rest(or doing some form of slow start after idle).
