Well, it makes no sense to me why a free man would be willing to accept
a situation where he is not only FORCED to buy something added to a
tool, and the addition is NOT free, but doesn't even have a CHOICE
between competing models when it comes to the added device.

Why is it so hard to understand that you are not forced to buy anything.
Your may be forced to buy a TS with this new device only if you decide on
you own to buy a new TS. Today you are forced to buy a TS with a really
crappy guard and many years ago the same arguments were most like made about
that addition.

Why is it so hard to understand that anyone buying a new table saw *will* be
forced to buy the $aw$top?

I can decide to take it or leave it.. plain and simple.

Not if this petition is adopted by the CPSC, you can't. You won't have the
choice.
