Would you use this paint brush accessory? What do you think you gain by adding it to your brush?

What happens here

Holding the paintbrush via the pistol-grip accessory, the presenter applies the white acrylic paint to the window trim of a house with light green siding. He demonstrates the 'cutting-in' technique, which involves painting a precise line along the edges where two colors meet or where the trim meets another surface. The synthetic bristles of the brush are ideal for this task as they maintain their shape, providing excellent control and a sharp edge, which is crucial for achieving clean lines. Despite the ergonomic design of the accessory, the presenter still expresses some uncertainty about its practical advantage over traditional brush handling, even as he effectively paints the trim.

Goal: The presenter uses the pistol-grip equipped paintbrush to 'cut in' and paint the white trim around a window.
