Would the BM Video Assist improve my footage?

https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/blackmagicvideoassist

This just came out from Blackmagic Design. Nice 2,500 nits HDR monitoring! I admit - I am tempted...!

I was wondering whether recording on this thing would substantially improve the video quality on my NX1? I know the camera records 4:0 8bit internally and the HDMI output is also 8bit.

But I am not sure whether the colorspace from HDMI output is 4:0 or 4:2:0. If it is the latter - will there be any obvious difference? Has anybody tried this with any external recorders and what are your findings?
