I agree with it being a positive development, but it is probably a story for any potential second waves. Don't think it can be scaled quickly enough to change much in the current wave.
It also doesn't solve many of the spontaneous human interactions that are hurt by this. A 13 min per person test that needs to be adminstered by somebody who knows what they are doing works fine in a factory. It probably is still too much friction for a restaurant, the subway, a stadium, kid's soccer practice, etc.
