That version of the G chord is great to learn. I resisted for a long time as well but now I did the work to get it to the point where it's totally effortless and I love it. It's just way faster in many chord progressions. So easy to go to a C, Am or a mini-barre F where you only barre the first 2 strings.
Love having that fingering in my arsenal. I use it more than the other way, and mostly use the "normal" way when I want to add the 2nd string at the 3rd fret to the voicing.
