It is good for, say, Availability: 12 standard grade bioware (platelet factories, rating: 2 synaptic boosters), since alphaware normally increases Availability, too. Otherwise, being able to treat standard grade augmentations as alphaware is not that impressive in SR5, where alphaware is only 1.2 times more expensive. I would set down your list of augmentations you are going to take, first. Then, calculate the Essence cost of them and ask yourself if taking the burnout's way saves you a Magic point in Essence costs (remembering that unless it is Availability: 11 or 12 to start with, you have the option of making it alphaware for a slight cost increase, instead).
