Golf clubs, especially driver, need to be hit fairly well. Their forgiveness can only do so much and won't save a really bad swing.
This is amplified with the driver, because a few degrees of deviation from straight will increase considerably because of the length of the drive.
Whether you want forgiveness in distance or dispersion will depend on the conditions of the courses you normally play, whether they have narrow and penal fairways with lots of OB, where you'll need less dispersion, or wide and long fairways where you'll need distance.
Forgiveness is a general term and may not apply to everyone, for some reason, I seem to hit my semi-blade M P 52's better than my bigger-headed and supposedly more forgiving R9's. Go figure.
