When you say 'just', do you mean you think this is the only effect?
As in the one and only effect of one of the most used text editors suggesting changes to its users writing will be to make their writing more clear? Thats quite optimistic.
If anything, it will make their writing more anodyne, which may be great from a business perspective. But it will probably have all sorts of effects that we won't be able to measure until years after the fact, if ever.
This is like Facebook making little tweaks to their timeline. Just by virtue of the fact that billions of people are exposed to it, you are actually shaping thought around the world, intentionally or not, knowingly or not.
