It probably depends on how you use the register, what and how you deliver the info.  Steve and I have had this conversation.  If info is passed out to potential buyers simply as stated by the owner to the register keeper, some important clarifying info on those specific entries will be missed and you may lose a sale simply because the register does not contain enough info to explain these short and simply entries that can be misleading without clarification.

If the register is going to be used to give info to potential buyers, the seller deserves the opportunity to know exactly what info about his car is being given and how it will be used and have the opportunity to clarify any entries that are furnished to potential buyers if they desire.
