It suffers the same problem that I have demonstrated with selecting "good" loads based on 3 shot groups, or "good" loads based on "flat spots in velocity" from ladders as shown in the linked article


It has not been demonstrated to produce any difference between loads when they are measured properly - with a meaningful sample size
