Thanks TDOL, but I think the indicative (as opposed to the subjunctive) could mean the same thing.
A-It is good that he goes there and not me.
But here again I get the impression that he actually does go there.
B-It is better that he should go there and not me.
I don't know if one can tell if this implies a condition:
It would be better IF he went that and not me.
or the indicative
It is better (now) THAT he goes there and not me.
The indicative would work with that meaning, too. I agree.
