The real question is how much worse of an experience that shower is. "energy efficient" tree saving hand blowdryers in bathrooms end up not ACTUALLY drying your hands!

Getting technology right isn't easy. Existing water saving shower solutions are indeed worse.

This shower has more pressure than a regular shower and the water is more clean than a regular shower. The water also is better temperature controlled than a regular shower. You even get a smart phone app for your shower but that's likely not the most important thing.

The only usability issue that you have to change the filters from time to time.

Yes, and their salesmen gave similar hype-pitches to the one you give in the next paragraph.
