Totally with the NHTSA on this one...
Let's use a simple baseball analogy. A homerun is a homerun - don't care if you it's 500 ft over the fence or 2 ft over the fence, they count the same. Telling the batter how far his homerun went may help the batter a bit (Babe, you don't need to swing so hard -- might save some wear on tear on your body over the long run), but it doesn't change his score against the metric.
