HS HC doesn't like CUs to get hit, even if it's for pop ups or ground outs. I think that's the purpose of the pitch..
That's exactly right. For a pitcher that has a great change-up (can locate inside and out AND change speeds) you want this pitch to be swung and/or hit.
It's no different than a pitcher that has a dominant drop-ball or rise. Again they are few and and far between.
