To my mind, the lerp thing makes the direct interactions in the demos look slow, smooth, and imprecise instead of fast, sharp, and immediately correct.
Where lerp would be great is showing indirect results of some actions: a non-obvious effect shown as a slower animation may give a better idea of what is happening, when you were not tracking the value previously. The scrolling demo gives a glimpse of it, but it's still a bit too direct to benefit seriously.
