Well, it's good that they're available in the sense they allow us to see how thoroughly useless seasonal forecasts based on extended model runs are.
That applies equally to the ECM and GLOSEA models. It's just that the latter don't let us see the mess that goes into the final ensemble result. They just give us an unjustifiably precise final average of all these wildly differing runs.
Most of the different tools for coming up with a seasonal forecast (analogues, sunspots, hawthorn berries, QBO, etc.) have some thin strand of logic to them, which makes them worth exploring.if you have time on your hands. But model output beyond day 15, never mind week 15, is the one that definitely needs binning.

Well, two or three times a decade it does, anyway.
