It's a lot like a new diet. Ya it might help a few people concretely but for the most part its going to be a lot of people posting about how this great new diet is going to change their life but its ultimately ineffective and used as a signaling tool briefly before becoming a scapegoat.

That said I think a lot of Google Calendar based tooling needs improvement so good on them for trying and I hope they move the meter in a positive direction.
