If you provide different text because each variant of the product requires a different description, then HikaShop's microdata for the product will provide these different texts along with the variants. So it's worth doing it as it can improve your SEO. You'll need to make sure the "include variants" option is activated in the settings of the google products plugin.

It's probably something minor, but I'd like your opinion on it. By default in Hikashop you must always indicate a default variant (or characteristic) to be shown in the first position. Thus, when a page loads, the complete description, let's say, would correspond to the overall product. If I want to put an alternative description to the variant that I set by default, this description will cause the global description of the product to not be seen. There is the option of putting some additional information from the first variant in custom fields, but as you told me, that "is not read by Google" as structured data. What can you do about it? Or let's say that we have to "sacrifice" the first variant of each article?

Or you could create an extra variant "please select", without a description, so that it would use the main product's. Another option would be to modify the product / show_default view file, and change the code $this->element->product_description to $this->element->main->product_description This way, the view would display the main product description by default.
