Also, the Delta had a "peg" thru each wheel guard, which appears to be a

It might still be one. IIRC Holding the shaft locked while changing

Maybe.
But the shaft-locks in my un-vast experience have been "real" locks, ie, a
pin thru a hole in the shaft, or the equivalent--not pure friction.
But a nice, uh, touch.
These grinders don't nut the wheels on a shaft, the wheels are screwed
to what appears to be a heavy integral flange, w/ 4 fair-sized screws.
Nice.
