I don't know if this is a real option or aftermarket accessory in Japan, or if they celebrate April Fool's on February 1st. But it IS a cool idea
Like it or not, that information is already stored on the main PCM, and is retrievable should you be in a disabling crash. Of course you must have Honda's diagnostic equipment. The information has already to be used to prosecute drivers following a serious crash that was their fault when they denied it.
