This form is so underwhelming, it feels like a random handout given to Vegeta to please his fans and close the gap between him and SSBKK.
It was pointless in the end as Goku has mastered UI and is light years ahead of him anyway, with little way of him catching up as he's given up on UI.
Worst thing they could do is for him is to use this boost for more than one arc.
They tried to keep them close for most of the series, but of course they had to destroy the gap in the last arc.

Vegeta’s new form came from reaching for the raw power within him which in the end fits Vegeta. I personally don’t think the form is reached by “sentimentality” Vegeta thinking of his promise to Cabba was just a trigger for Vegeta.
Goku’s comes from instinct which as a martial artist prodigy fits Goku.
Maybe Goku and Vegeta could both reach the other form but in the short time frame of the tournament I think what they individually reached makes sense. Even though I think things are moving too fast in general I like that they both took different paths & I think that was the point.
And well Vegeta got to beat the secondary main antagonist and Goku the main one with their new forms.
Fantastic post. Agreed with everything
I don't. All arguments that Goku "can't", immediately fail if he can both unlock and perfect in under 47 minutes something Beerus - who would predate the dinosaurs - hasn't. Goku's power potential is at least equal to Vegeta's, so the question still stands with regards to an in-story reason. Not a thematic reason like you gave. An actual reason in this universe, why Goku couldn't unlock a much, much, much easier transformation than UI, ever after having seen Vegeta do it, when it would clearly be in his advantage to do so as it's superior to Kaioken in terms of stamina and power.
Where as it's just not in Vegeta's nature to be loose and fight on instinct. Vegeta is tense, always on guard, always hyper agressive and thinking about his next move or plotting. UI completely goes against who Vegeta is
This is the primary reason why I don't think he will ever get UI. Vegeta would have to remove the rod from his butt, but that's too much of an iconic part of him at this point.
Then he's never touching Goku again.
Without UI he has zero chance of touching him, he's completely outclassed. You might as well be comparing Goku to Krillin. he'll crush both with the same ease.
This is something they've been building up as the ultimate form. How else can he compete with Goku without some random BS or ass pull.
