What about p = 0.001?

As they explain, at the link, they are realio trulio banning null hypothesis significance testing. This is neat!

Neat in what sense? (i.e., in a popcorn-worthy or a methodological progress sense?)

Also, does this ban make sense for the entire field of psychology, or perhaps just for 'feelings' parameters that range from icky to awesome?
