Ah interesting, doesn't the Pi 3 use the same wifi chipset though? I think the Pi uses BCM43438. I'm not sure if all 43x chips use the same firmware.

I think it's a difference between the firmwares that like the b43 driver uses, and the ones that the brcmfmac driver uses. I've got a laptop with a bcm4312, and it's got a very different-looking set of firmware files than the ones used in my Pi3.
