I believe that what you are getting at is that there is a specific structure of P+/Nwell/Psub that is used for
6 z2 q8 W: u8 b6 C0 U/ _* W& N7 B1 S, R2 K$ f
the "bipolar", so you are asking why use that structure rather than simply a P+/Nwell "diode". Here is my take

1- The "bipolar" will simulate more accurately than the "diode", since it will include the substrate current " K, c* {/ A( w6 {- e! x/ M

that is probably not modeled for the "diode".
, I; o) p$ k* P/ M, d0 B$ E! w4 o( }9 t! v' }: ~% ~& t* d: {
2- There usually is a specific structure for the "bipolar" that has characterization data available. When
, G4 g- i& f+ C) U$ \! s; v4 k$ D; ]: G) Y
building a bandgap structure, the good characterization is needed in order to properly determine the tempco of

3- The additional structure of the bipolar should help prevent current injection into other substrate tied
