>> David Montgomery explained one concept that was both new and helpful to me: Volatility only becomes a useful concept in relation to the relevant take-point. That is, a position may have high volatility but if all that spread is under the take point it doesn't matter. Another position with a tight distribution centered on the take point is more likely to be a cube.

While correct for the specific position, I like Chuck miss the single number anyway...

Because, over time, I think it's useful to learn the volatility of different positions / position types. No matter if the individual positions are close to the double point or not (that can even vary by score), but just in general.

It will give you some useful "feeling" to your game for volatility as a parameter :-)
