Won't be game breaking but could give that one pixel of range you needed, no harm in learning it anyways.

I think boost grabs can work with characters who have good horizontal aeriel movement. Like Ness and Wario who weave in and out when retreating their aerials.

I wouldn't dare to say naw but since our grabs aren't exactly safe they should be set up anyway.

Well if he jumps, he jumps. same goes for rolling/spot dodging. Additional range doesn't help here.
I honestly never had the problem that my grabs don't go far enough.
