Black Boxes for GA Aircraft...Good or Bad?

Got this article in an AOPA email about black boxes being installed in
the Cirrus SR20 and SR22. Do you think that all flight schools should
have these type of black boxes installed in their aircrafts?
Since insurance companies are in the business of finding who is at
fault, I suppose it could have some benefit to them if you had such a
box, and it would be fair to expect to get a discount in your premiums.
However, you asked whether flight schools _should_ have these boxes.
The only way that would be true is if it found its way into the FARs. I
hope that would never become the case because the FAA is in the
business of improving aviation safety, and this box does nothing to
improve safety.
