I think there's something here. The tool is not intended to stop bad faith actors. You can't stop those. But you can nudge people into "being better" with a simple prompt. I can't recall the exact blog/paper now, but I remember reading that someone did this test (google perhaps?) and saw that with a simple prompt "hey this message is high on anger, did you mean to write it like this?" before submitting lead to ~30-50% to change their message and tone it down. It might help in that regard.
Case in point IMO, this very comment embodies the common trap that even "smart" people fall into... black-and-white thinking that is often wrong and just makes you look less intelligent.
"As a rule, strong opinions about issues do not emerge from deep understanding."
