I don't think so, but I might be wrong.

No, it lacks many of the "nW" features, such as all
INTOSC "nW-options".

OK, fine.
I prefer to follow the definitions set up by MC, that
makes it much easier to read (e.g.) the link-card.
And when I see 
"nanoWatt" on the first page of
the data sheet, I know that this part 
has some
specific core/osc features.

So what ?
"nW" is about core/osc 
features, not peripherials.
"nW" doesn't imply that the part has some 
specific
peripherial(s), does it ?
