Setting the blade "just high enough" has also tossed untold numbers of
boards back at the operator, especially when the stupid guard was in
place to hide the wood/blade contact interface


Sure boards can kick back, that is why you don't stand directly behind the
blade. If I had not set the blade just high enough I would be missing the
tip of my thumb and one finger tip instead of a band-aid and a scar.
