Its meant so you can minimize the time you take your eyes off the road in front of you. Usually you would mirror, signal, shoulder check. With the system you can just mirror signal then look at the screen which you can revert to looking forward again in a shorter time.

I can see the hesitation when you first drive the car but once you get a feel for it and trust the system it can help as sometimes things change in front of you the split second that you take to shoulder check. Its almost like the blind spot monitoring systems some cars have now, its a silly thing to some but its technological advancement that can ultimately make roads safer.
