I'm generally against long term punishments for crimes like this, but operating a dangerous machine like a car is a serious matter. A breathalyzer is a reasonable compromise compared to just taking away your license, right?

More effective, too.

An interlock prevents you from driving drunk. Suspending a license pretty frequently does nothing.
