I would like to see it under a thermal imager.
The temperature distribution will probably be "interesting".
But maybe it works.

If it is actually solid copper, as they claim, the thermal conductivity will result in it being reasonably even. (I've used big desoldering block tips -- copper blocks with individual wells for every leg of an IC or connector -- to desolder 40-pin (2x20) connectors and various DIP ICs. They're also copper and they heat quite evenly.)
Huh? It's the exact opposite situation to a long thin soldering iron tip.
What I'm saying is there could be more of a temperature drop when using a long thin tip compared to this.
Assuming the slip fit or however its connected is decent.
What do you think of this soldering product?

It looks interesting. Like a hotplate on a stick.
looks interesting but... useless (except maybe to some highly specialized job). but hey! its only 10 bucks what you got to lose? you can buy it, try it once and when you figure out its useless you can hang it on your wall while you doing your sheet metal can sunroof drilling stuffs.
you keep losing 10 bucks and you find yourself pulling wire out of a printer instead of buying a spool of new teflon from digikey.
There is always a need for high quality consumables to improve project quality and small sums add up quick in this hobby IMO.
There is a ton of 15$ nicknacks that are hard to buy, and you never get that good work flow going if you keep wasting money on avant garde experimental thermal stuff.
A mechanical gadget, IMO, usually will be worth something, because it can probobly do something so long its made of metal. A thermal gadget??? that can easily be a total waste of money.
