I'd consider it a selling point. All the latest ammenities.

I have one as well. It's basically a pipe to a sump with an inline fan venting outside. It sucks up all the air underneath the slab. Not sure about the incoming air concept though. They put a pipe around the perimeter as well.
Walls are painted and the floor will be refinished as well (someday). Have to grind it all to flow to the sump pump, and it will be a messy job.

Radon is common in Mich basements. I've seen it up to 7 or 8 in another house with the system turned off, but unless you're spending time down there it's not the greatest worry. Mold or chemical offgassing from new materials is probably more of a concern.
