This depends on the nature of your code and how often it changes. If you're working with code that's being regularly refactored or evolved, using 'nameof' makes more sense to prevent outdated string literals.
As for the example, it's demonstrating an unnecessary use of 'nameof'. The variable 'name' is defined locally and is not likely to change or need refactoring. Using 'nameof' here doesn't provide much benefit and could potentially make code more confusing to read, because it's not immediately clear that 'nameof(name)' will output the string literal 'name'.
The primary purpose of 'nameof' is to maintain clear and maintainable code, especially for class properties, method names, and other symbols that could change. Using it elsewhere may not provide extra value and could potentially make code harder to understand.
I hope this clarifies it. Thank you for your comment!
