I really, really like seeing the number of op hours shown.  It helps me 
to see how I'm doing, sometimes worse than I thought.

It doesn't have to be super precise.  The nearest hour is probably good 
enough.

It isn't an exact number, just the number of hours - calculated based on log data, so doesn't include listening time.  Even so, it might be very useful for the kinds of comparisons being talked about.   For instance, it appears I was beaten badly by NN1N in the "2 hour category" in CW SS.
