You sure didn't get your question answered very well. You are correct that you are paying $130 for 19% or $170 for 10%. There may be a slightly higher risk of burn with the 19% but not if you apply the same total nitrogen in pounds per acre. I routinely apply granulated 46-0-0 to bermudagrass fields with no burn. You get foliage burn when you over apply fertilizer. If you have a soil sample and follow the recommendations you will not get any burn. Don't apply when there is no chance of rain for thirty days: some of the nitrogen will boil off laying in the sun on top of the ground.
You are correct, it is easier to get better coverage with more volume (less concentration for the same actual n-p-k applied). You can also mix concentrated fertilizer with sand to achieve the same results.
