Not the original person but I’ve looked into these. The answer is yes. The draw back to that type of system is if you want plain cold water then you’ll need to get through the luke warm water first.
Most houses have many loops of water pipes. So you’d want to put the valve somewhere you desire hot water more than cold. I find bathrooms would be more useful than the kitchen. Less wasted water when hopping in the shower, washing hands, or if you have a bidet (even just a cheap cold water one it would now be warm for awhile). In a kitchen it’s more ambiguous. I fill pots with cold water for cooking more than I probably want hot water for the dishwasher. Having not had a system like this personally I’m not sure if filling up a pot of water getting an initial charge of warm would really be noticeable though.
