Seems to me that the signal would be helpful in communicating to coaches, runner and infielders that even though they may have heard the ball hit the bat, or that the catcher dug up a lot of dirt/dust on a low pitch that the umpire still considers that ball live and to continue play.

But it does not help F2. The player with the ball.

Don't care about F2. That player should know the situation since that person should be prepared to make any play in front of them, foul tip or not. The C should also be aware of whether the ball was caught or not.

Then why would you care about everyone else that you mentioned in your post? Shouldn't the same thing apply to them?
Everyone on the field knows that C caught the ball, including C.
