"Flamethrower" (the wavy path ball gun) is perfect for a couple parts of the game where you can lay down. You fire and ever shot hits, and you are never in the path of enemy bullets or mobs.

Does it do this better than the spread? I'm trying to think of what part of the game this advice would work...

In very narrow cases, yes. If I remember, spread has a specific rate of fire which is fairly slow compared to flamethrower, so you can clear very specific targets faster with flamethower. Again, 99% of the time Spread is going to be better.
