I'm curious how this works out in the privacy of people's homes. A lot of couples wind up arguing about who really said what. I wonder how it works out for them when someone produces the recording that settles it for good.

While we would hope that it settles the argument, it doesn't address the emotions. And therefore I suspect that it would just make people's arguments worse.

Yeah, throwing a recording in their face seems like a surefire way to escalate that argument rather than resolving it. It's more about trust and mutual respect & compromise and forgiveness... if you start keeping score and playing gotchas, that only builds resentment.
