But if you read DPReview's 'Best of' comparison article that was referred to early in this discussion, the ZS100/TZ100 Gold winner has a 25-250mm 10x lens. Otherwise I'm confused by TZ100 vs TZ110 models on web searches.

Yes, the post mentions three different Lumix cameras in the review, but I took the subject of the post to be the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX10.
There is a 2017 review on dpreview that compares the above discussed cameras - it rates the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX10 above the: ...
The LX10 has a 24-72mm lens.
The TZ100 has a 25-250mm 10x lens. It is very confusing that the same camera is marketed with different names. Here it's the TZ110. It's not the first time Panasonic have done this but I don't understand why.
There is much to be liked about the TZ100/110, and I think it would be a great choice for many. I did have an earlier TZ series camera before I got the LX3 and it was a very good travel camera.
But for myself, having experienced the LX3 and then the RX100 I just can't wean myself away from their fast, bright lenses. That after all was the rationale for the LX3 - to produce better images by using a quality fast lens rather than cram more pixels on a small image sensor as was the common approach back then. As reported by dpreview
Lumix LX3 at the time. I thought the LX3 was the bees knees and was blown away when the RX100 emerged with a huge sensor and even better lens in a smaller package.
So I have learned to compose my shots without relying on zoom.
