I can see this working in a small closed team environment, where there is a lot of emphasis on house rules. I think where this loses appeal for me is longevity and larger or more open-source projects.

I'm not keen on overcomplicating rules for fleeting contributors. I do really like how it looks though and I'd use it for personal and smaller/private projects.
As with any tool, gotta ask yourself is it appropriate for what you're doing.
