IMO there's plenty of reason to use Xoshiro over PCG. the quality differences between the best xoshiro and pcg differences are minimal (especially because most languages use a 256 bit state since it makes it easier to split/jump without worrying about duplicate streams), and Xoshiro generators tend to be easier to SIMD for when you need lots of random numbers.
