It definitely gives you additional information - it detects vehicles earlier than I can hear, and I only need to look down or get an audible alert from my head unit. But in general, in urban environments, I agree on that I've also ridden for decades without radar or mirrors and got along just fine. Also agree that the primary use would be to make a left turn and it's easier to look at the indicator on the head unit than it is to turn my head. The secondary use is to just not be surprised by anyone. But, to each their own.
