The Spherical Gradient node
When to use it
A soft blob mask that needs no remapping: 1 at the centre, falling to 0 at a distance of 1.
That 1 is one world unit, which is tiny. Straight out of the box this node reads 0 almost everywhere and looks broken. Scale the domain to size it, because the falloff distance is fixed and there is no radius pin to change.
Good for localising an effect: noise only near a point, colour only around a landmark.
