I don't see a real advantage in that particular view.
At what point do some of these driver aids become driver distractions?

It would probably be necessary for me to program my thinking into using it more for a rearview mirror than for its entertainment value, as I'm sure some will see it...I've lately had to force myself to ignore the phone ringing in my pocket until I'm parked safely somewhere...It's a tough learning curve......Ben

But I can see an advantage if the screen is only visible when the transmission is in reverse...I'm almost worthless at backing a trailer since I only do so once in a blue moon...Or maybe if it's activated by a steering wheel button with a momentary function......Ben

That is similar to my cameras: the rear camera is only active when in reverse, the front camera only when activated at slow speed by a button. Both are effective and helpful---and cannot be used as "toys".
I can see that camera in your post as a help in backing up---it could replace my wife who always manages to be out of my sight and giving me verbal directions which I cannot hear

Hauling my mini trailer or not, I check the rear view mirror least once every 15 or so seconds. I can see no difference in a safety aspect if there were a camera on the rear of a trailer which allows you to see what is behind you.
