 		 #110668 - Talking out of both sides of the mouth
Responding to: ???'s previous message
If the MCU chosen for the job is the most cost-effective, perhaps it's worthwhile to bit-bang the async comm.

then, yes, absolutely, use an external UART if you have to have async comm's and can't bit-bang the thing, or use an MCU that allows use of an external baud clock.

First, be cost-effective, then add the cost of an external UART
