The full ad103 is still far from the limit. And Nvidia is trying to give china the most powerful gpu they can make. Though if the cut is truly at 100 SMs then Nvidia wants to stay within the limit even if the card is overclocked as 100 SMs still feels too step a cut.
Also Ad102 is what allows you 24gb of vram I imagine the extra 14 SMs is iceing on the cake in that case
