Stopping on the bar-point doesn't look right.  Blue's board is as weak as White's and Blue is more than 20 pips ahead after the play, so he would rather not be involved in a blot-hitting contest.  Blue simply doesn't need complications.
The made bar-point will be a potential landing place, from which Blue can build up the inner-board later.  Blue's top priority is to solidify his racing lead by playing with one man back.
The simple 24/18*/13 is clear.
