If you did a boomf aoe version (SVM casting), however, the damage would be 3d8+WIS
Given the way other touch attack spells work (and poisons) yes. "Holding a charge" is no longer a thing.
As for "better," the numbers work out to breaking even (on the order of < 0.5 damage on average) if you can get 2 people in the aoe and "more efficient than multiple casts" if you hit 3.
