Playing Devil's Advocate for a second: it is, but they also emphasize it changing other things later in the adventure for you like speech blocks, information the party gets for free, which NPCs are present, and similar things. It could be very useful when combined with their "remembering which groups did which things" feature: I've seen GMs run a longer adventure multiple times over a convention weekend, one part per day, and that could be a big help for them. The same would apply to something like a Pathfinder Society adventure you're running a bunch of times, but you're less likely to need it when each instance is a single session.
Anyway, I imagine the authors of this software do something where it's a useful feature.
