I think they could be used as a pretty good tool for the trad person. I know of an instinctive shooter that shoots in the dark at a target lighted by a laser pointer. To me, since there is no immediate feedback, I don't understand why he does this unless he is just trying to see how accurate he can be in the dark. But I bet with one of these lighted nocks, you could get a real good feel for the trajectory of the arrow. That is as long as it is flying true.
