This measurement is nice because your EcuTek log will measure it, and also because it summarizes the area under the curve (~4000-7500 in 4th) and gives a better representation of overall usable power. This is where the SC really shines, especially with a header/exhaust where you're not dropping off as much at the top.
The more you talk the more I want to update my 210 to the 335. I better get a decent year end bonus and tax return to cover the clutch, 335 upgrade kit, and flex fuel package.
