That's what I initially thought, too, but it doesn't really do that. They
cut down but don't eliminate glare.

Sunglasses should make it easier to see other traffic. Any reduction in the
visibility of other traffic, whether it's to cut the glare completely or
simply to reduce it, is a negative in my book, since that's counter to one
of the purposes of a pair of sunglasses.

The only problem I have spotting traffic is that I fly a Pitts which has
sod-all visibility anyway! I can still see the top wing with my polarized
glasses on though!

For me, it's more a matter of seeing *other* airplanes' wings, not those on
my own.
