Try it because:
1. This motion has inbuilt racquet drop - you dont need to worry about dropping the racquet - its auto if you hold the racquet with small pressure
2. it is the most efficient if you are using a heavier racquet (remember Sampras and Lendl)
3. it is a continuous motion - unlike manny other forehands which can be broken down in different parts (Macy lessons)
All pro forehand are a continuous motion -dont get me wrong but this one is the one with most elbow lead involved.this is the continuous motion of the natural body.
4. it is the most feel based of all forehand - because the swing is kinda long and you need to feel it from the beginning to the end
5. this forehand was away for a long time - nextgens like Kachanov, Thiem, Medvedev, Kyrgios brought it back in a modern setting.
6. although it is not the most compact stroke (James Blake was an exception) it can be unleashed really fast (Kyrgios style) with super power.
7. With this type of forehand I think you can have the biggest racquet head speed of all the motions because you pull the racquet back with the elbow and already can generate fast speed on the way backwards and then after the drop the energy and speed just changes direction and BAM.
8. the ELBOW is the king and I call it the most natural swing of them all
9. i will never say it has the biggest control - because we could debate on that topic because obvious - Djokovic and Federer - they are on the other side
10. it is hotter than you think - i found that out when i tried to hit the FH with my non dominant hand. And what is extra interesting is that it seems that this forehand doesnt need so much training as the "regular" FH that is beeing teached nowadays. again - because of the FEELing you have
it has also some drawbacks like but you will need to figure out alone which ones these are.
