Is there anything better with zirconia crown compared to porcelain-titanium crown beside cosmetics ?

My zirconia crowned tooth ( canaled ) from when I was a kid fell off. Apparently my tooth's body was too short and that crown couldn't hold on no more. I do noticed the crown has this small hole in it after I picked it up, seems like dentist went a bit overboard with reshaping+years of eating wore it out ( my guess ). So this time I'm looking at porcelain-titanium crown, it's 60$ cheaper and I don't really care about aethestic because the tooth is R16 ( upper right 6th tooth, so a molar tooth ). Is there anything beside cosmetics benefits that justify the higher cost with zirconia crown ? Hope I can get a quick answer before they start manufacturing my new crown.
