If you are looking to use DuckDuckGo search but still need to review Google's research for critical search tasks, you can use this Firefox addon. Make DuckDuckGo your default search engine so that your initial searches start there and this places a convenient button in the URL panel to execute the same search in Google.

Why is this better than using the !g DDG bang after the initial search?

it's not, at all
this is the entirety of what this extension does, from its code:
// Extract the search query from the DuckDuckGo URL
const url = new URL(tab.url);
const searchQuery = url.searchParams.get('q');
if (searchQuery) {
// Create the Google search URL
const googleUrl = `https://www.google.com/search?q=${encodeURIComponent(searchQuery)}`;

Its just convenience. Its a couple of keystrokes vs a mouse click while you are scrolling
