Is perfect CEP needed when the explosive radius of bombs is dozens of meters?

it is when you are dropping a bomb down a ventilation shaft

Depends on how hardened the target is. If you are aiming at a landed helicopter it doesn't matter as long as it hits somewhere vaguely close to it but if it's a main battle tank your SDB needs pretty much a direct hit.

Depends on the nature of the target. Thin walled warehouses and wooden crates aren't the most durable of things.

The more precise your bomb is, the smaller your bomb can be, and then you can bring more bombs to the fight

Alternatively we can expand the targeting perimeters so broad that every hit is a success.

If the fuse is a proximity or instantaneous, it may react to the roof of the barn, and if a delayed detonation is used, it may sink into the ground and lose its destructive power.

Because A = πr2 this is usually the worst option. There is definitely a small trade space where bigger warheads do give better results but it's not the norm. I can think of two examples for this: a 1-3lb warhead gives instant results on people while a 40mm nade or 30mm VOG often doesn't, and a 500-1000lb bomb kills well-armored vehicles like tanks or ifvs when thrown ~20 meters off target by GPS jamming in a way GMLRS warheads (50lb he/200lb total) won't.

You've almost got the right mindset. Just treat every bomb dropped as if it successfully hit it's target. They would never miss, after all.

A higher volume of precision munitions is going to kill more targets than shitting fat bombs wherever they may land.

>this bomb managed to destroy easiest target in the world
>there will never going to be any more hardened targets so why bother aiming?

Regular hardened shelters are still viable.
Destroying deep buried nuclear processing centers that require six or more 30,000 lb bombs at a cost of $20MM per is only attainable by one country. No one else can even deliver the bomb to the target area much less build it.
