Default Compression spiral cutters

Just a few days ago, I received a cat. from a woodworking co. Thumbing through it I found a bit that seems interesting, at best. It is described as "compression up an down spirals". They, (the catalog), states this will stop tear-out.

I may be looking at it wrong but, woud this not put the chips right in the way and create "chatter" on the bit? Has anyone heard or seen such a bit?
If needed I'll try to find a link to the bit.
