Its noise to people who don't understand options.

The price of the underlying can be above the strike price of a call option when it expires and you can still lose money if you bought them when IV was high, like just before earnings.

I don't buy options. I only sell options.
U don't need to know IV at all. U just look at strike price and premium bid ask and decide accordingly because the IV would be factored into the premium already

Option premium isn't static, its partly determined by vol, of course it probably won't matter if you intend to hold an option till expiration, but many option traders don't so it pays to know how to trade vol.
