But it makes you think harder about timing, rhythm and missed/extra notes. It's a hundred times harder to play things in time than out of it and arguably the most important skill to acquire early on.

I think the best learning tool for a guitarist is a looper pedal, it forces you to confront sloppiness in your playing, but also encourages you to experiment with your playing and tones. The day after I bough a looper, I dusted off my my metronome and have used it consistently since.
