Even if you do have a wide roofing filter, this method is oftentimes superior when listening to weak-signal HF broadcast signals at 5 kHz (or less) channel spacing. Typically, one sideband will present significantly less interference than the other, providing intelligible copy that is unattainable listening to full-bandwidth double-sideband AM in the usual fashion.
