If you are going to buy a new TS in the near future and think that
there are too many safety devices on the TS's now, you better buy one now
before the UL regulations require the new TS's to be equipped with a riving
knife.
For the rest of us, this is probably good news.
The bait has been cast. ;~)

I looks like the "requirement" is voluntary and was recommended on
