I would say vo2 max is fairly useful but maybe not in a tactical way which you are describing. Its a longer term trend identifier for efficiency of your respiration process.

Well sort of. But you can train VO2 Max in ways that don't result in higher performance. What most athletes really care about isn't VO2 Max per se, but rather ability to sustain a high percentage of VO2 Max for a longer period.
