Saddle suspension. Any use?

Are those seat posts with suspension any use? are they less efficient power transfer wise?

I have one. I don't think there is any loss in power - it doesn't move much at all - I sometimes doubt it moves at all.
I think padded cycling shorts would be more comfortable (I remember riding my racer with jeans on and it was bloody horrible - with padded shorts it's comfortable).
