Other thing to consider is that if you want to tail the boost off at the top end on an internally gated turbo, you can reach the point where the port inside the exhaust housing just physically can't bypass enough exhaust gasses and the boost pressure will creep back up at high revs.

External wastegates when specced properly provide very accurate control!
