3 variations make a difference
Insurance, 16v10, and 15v10. After that the value gained from strategy departures drops considerably. A good argument for risk averse strategy. Only use the variations that make a measurable difference in ev.
One thing is, however, that after you become experienced you will not be memorizing indeces. You will be so used to the numbers from the constant discussions of how to play every hand that you will know them pretty well. As long as you have the big 3 correct, you could change all the others randomly up or down one and you'd see almost no change. Exact numbers are very unimportant. But if you understand the play you will always be in the ball park.
When publishing they should give all the exact correct numbers. They should not make a judgement call for you as to what is important, what you should learn, and what you should not bother with. We can all look at the numbers and decide for ourselves whether we want to learn 20 numbers, 30, etc. I only use about 30 numbers.

Okay, I guess that's 42 numbers. But some of these are approximations and I didn't set out to have this many. Most expererienced players have many more than this, like doubling 8 v 3, or A5 v 2, splitting 33 v 8, etc, most of them worthless. But if you know them, especially the hit/stand on stiffs, you might as well use them. Why not? The rare worthless doubles and splits you can do without to decrease variance.
