This is because aerodynamic forces acting on an airplane are directly proportional to dynamic pressure hence CAS helps a pilot flying safely and accurately an airplane. BTW, all operational limitation and performance data that depend on airspeed are better and more simply expressed using CAS than TAS.
Which was the point I was making...
