What are you saying here? I think you're confusing power with current.
Also, current is measured in amps, not amps per second (or a scaled
version of that.)

I don't believe that's right.
This expands to:
MFP_CFG_IN(GPIO43, AF0) | MFP_AF2 | MFP_LPM_DRIVE_LOW
and:
(MFP_CFG_DEFAULT & ~(MFP_AF_MASK | MFP_DIR_MASK)) |
(MFP_PIN(MFP_PIN_GPIO43) | MFP_AF0 | MFP_DIR_IN)
| MFP_AF2 | MFP_LPM_DRIVE_LOW
Note the presence of both MFP_AF2 and MFP_AF0 in there.
The default for GPIO43_BTUART_TXD is:
MFP_CFG_OUT(GPIO43, AF2, DRIVE_HIGH)
and I'd suggest defining a new GPIO43_BTUART_TXD_LPM_LOW to cover your
case.
