The only major difference between napalm phoenix and concussion phoenix is that napalm doesnt scale. In earlygame, where you only use 1-3 bombers, napalm is actually better due to DoT damage and area denial.

And by midgame the oppponents should have at least some basic AA, and with phoenix's meager HP it means losses. If you suffer 33% losses on average run, your bombers must fully return cost in 3 or less runs to be viable.

Having to minimise losses is one of the reasons the bombers are more commonly used for defence - enemies usually breakthrough with a mix of assaults and raiders, bombing these costs you nothing once they are outside of AA-covered zone. And guess what? Phoenixes suck against those classes. Assaults are just too tough, while raiders can usually at leas partially dodge the bombs.
