I know it's supposed to be another NeverTrumper group, but how it differs from the Lincoln folks is unclear to me. More to the point, has any "revelation" from a partisan group like that ever had any real impact on the race?

trying to actively (and gleefully) defeat their own party's President before so there's no way of knowing how much impact they're going to have.

My guess is that they will move the needle - perhaps with some of the more 'normal' and 'traditional' Republicans that are disgusted by Trump - even if they can't vote for Biden maybe they'll just not vote at all.
