I think they sound like they're broken.

IMO, it's a beautiful sound. Very different and I can see why it is useful. It also seems that it look them a while and a fair amount of experimentation to get this particular sound. I am sure it is quite easy for that type of sound to go from beautiful to ugly very easily.

I can see the utility in the studio. There's a few guitar sounds I've heard out there I would like to replicate but have not figured out how they did it.

I like that sound as an interesting alternative, particularly how it's used in the Madison Cunningham video to accompany her singing. I could easily imagine that sound being used by Tom Waits in a ballad.
