I've tried this with a group. It's good for generating endless conversation on principles of economic fairness. It completely fails to be a time-saving mechanism.
There is the completely rational mind and then there are humans - this represents a separation point :)
Ha! Touche! Yes, this has never actually saved time. Well, among me and Bethany Soule (coauthor of the Android app described in the article) and Sharad Goel (co-blogger at Messy Matters) I think it's now routine enough that it saves time.
But it's so the Right Way to do it! I guess it's like trying to get Americans to use the metric system. It would be worth it if it actually worked...
