Sigh.
There is no such thing as RMS watts when measuring RF power.
I will stick to my statement.
1, Manufacture spec sheets are not the final word in device output.
2, The 2879 is more than capable of producing in excess of what the manufacture has stated in there specification sheets and survive just fine if feed, driven and cooled properly.
And I will add that this also applies to other RF transistors as well.
If you have read the entire thread and don't understand what was posted then there is nothing more that I can offer.
Have a good evening.
