As usual, it all depends on the other components in your build and what you're doing with the PC to help determine if lower CL will benefit you.

NGL 32GB of this stuff gave me an extra 5fps gains at 1440p lowkey.

You probably should have included that these latencies are measured in nanoseconds.
Unless you're doing complete end to end reads and writes (multimedia encoding or extreme computational math, for instance), a fraction of a second difference in latency is only going to add up on paper/in benchmarks.
Rule of thumb for selecting ram is capacity (if you're constantly at 85% consumption or higher, you need more ram), clock speed, and finally latency – in that order.
Again, we're talking about nanoseconds.

Another alternative to Crucial in this category are these sticks. I got 16gb for 70 a few weeks ago:

I am still waiting to see what happens with the 3070 stocks so I can do a good build and run 1440p.
Yes they are a good and reliable branf
If you're going Zen 3 (the upcoming 5000 series chips), you'll want 4000 MHz as the "sweet spot": https://wccftech.com/amds-ryzen-5...weet-spot/
For Zen 2, 3600 MHz CL16 is the best you should go for. Anything above that will actually result in lesser performance due to the way Ryzen chips work. Ryzen chips' on-chip memory controller speed runs at the RAM speed. So for Zen 2 chips, for example, the memory controller will run at 3733 MHz (max) or below natively.
But RAM at that speed is stupid expensive because it's not really mass-produced, so that's why AMD recommends 3600 CL16 as the most cost-effective maximum. If your RAM runs above 3733 MHz, the memory controller and RAM will work out-of-sync to compensate, which results in lesser performance (notice in the chart in the first link that the latency goes up after 3733 MHz).
You can go 3600 MHz CL18, which is a little cheaper. But CL16 will give you better performance between the two (if you're looking for that). For casual usage/light gaming, you probably won't notice a difference.
