#172107 - Rd(on) versus gain
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Rd(on) is the slope of the drain curves near the origin. This is why the datasheet early mentioned speaks of Rd(on)@Id=1mA.

Gain is connected with dId/dVgs (transconductance) or dVgs/dId. This is how "separate" (in Id miliamps) are constant Vgs drain current curves. I mean, for Vds fixed, take a little Vgs change and see how much change in Id happened.

Normally, you will not use the JFET amplifier in the Rd(on) area. Lower Rd(on) will only give you a little more Vds swing for higher Vgs (saturation area).
