Right, this new estimate can be useful for decision support: if we plant X acres, how much CO2 would it absorb? It's not very important outside of that, and it cant have caused significant past errors because to date humans have not undertaken large-scale planting for CO2 absorption reasons.
Several countries have implemented large-scale planting efforts: China, Ethiopia, India, Brazil, Australia, Pakistan, and Turkey to name a few. In 2019, Ethiopia claimed to have planted over 350 million trees in a single day as part of a broader initiative to plant 4 billion trees within a year to fight climate change.
It's not very important outside of predicting the future of the climate accurately.
That's not the kind of thing I'd write "It's not very important outside of" before. This "mere" prediction and decision support is the reason we fund the sciences.
