The advantage is that you capture a much wider bandwidth signal than you can lock to. That lets you extract better “instantaneous phase” information. With the narrow band loop normally used for locking, loop dynamics get into the picture. That on top of the RF propagation issues is a bit of a mess. It also is quite possible to capture multiple radio (or TV or …) transmissions and post process against all of them. The bottom line is still that “many degrees” at 100 MHz is far more practical than “tenth of a degree”. There are very few options if your application really does need roughly a tenth of a degree.
