Didn’t we have one when KERs was first brought in?

We did, but KERS would reset every lap.

Hopefully they'll integrate it in a meaningful way and it'll be accurate. That close to the wall graphic was super useless and very inaccurate, totally pointless. That striking distance thingy is also very bogus. And the pit stop strategies are simply written up by somebody at Pirelli and have the AWS logo slapped on them. Plus they are never right, the soft tyre is only good for 20 laps, Albon proceeds to do 50 laps on them.

I don't know what AWS is doing, because it certainly isn't showing the power of their platform. But I sometimes forget a lot of F1 is simply shifting around enough money so that it's a good vehicle for money laundering and getting around regulations and sanctions. So in that way it wouldn't make much sense.
