EPR gage

Why do you set " power" on 744's (RB 211 524-H) based on EPR and not on N1 or N3 like on the 757's.
Would it be because , looking at the ratio of total inlet to pressure
oulet,gives a more precise number?Yet, you still monitor the other gages to sense possible disagrement , should one of the pressure sensor becomes clogged.
Talking about clogged sensor,if Pt 1 (inlet sensor) is blocked,the EPR number is going to be higher than normal,what about if the Pt 7 (the outlet one) is experiencing blockage,what would be the reading?
Anyone for a simple formula????

Thank you very much un advance
