As a RC hobbist myself I doubt many people realize how close 5 miles is to an airport so It'll probably help some park fliers. Agreed it won't stop the idiots. I primarily see the FAA gathering a user list and if they ever needed to track a drone at least they would have a clue instead of the nothing they have now.
