Though being kind of a math spaz myself, I don't really see the benefit of this approach. It doesn't appear to be something you can do quickly in an intuitive manner, and pokerstove is basically faster and more accurate; And like you said, running pokerstove a lot will get your intuition going.
It's just a visual way of calculating equity. If you can't do this quickly then you're not a math person.
