What do you think about saddles with no nose? (lemmy.pe1uca.dev)

I'm wondering what are the pros and cons about saddles with no nose like this one https://www.amazon.ca/Nose-Saddle-Comfort-Large-Bicycle/dp/B087ZBPFCH

My only thought is a bit about balance, I mean the nose can help you grip to the bike better with the thighs than trying to do it to the frame with the legs, specially for someone just learning to ride a bike (this seat will be for my wife).
Any other thought you have about that kind of seats?

This looks like a seat for a recumbent trike that has an independent backrest.
