No, it's not a good thing. Because most people never touch the top bar and this is just an insincere gesture that Google knows only a tiny fraction of people will notice or even fewer will use. You know how many people have been amazed when I tell them you can filter results by date? They had no idea! Meanwhile, Google will continue sucking data out of those websites as those site views fall to zero, and when those sites vanish Google won't care since they've already got their data!
