My guess he hasn't seen that guard since he set up his saw.

How many of us do know where the guard for the TS is? I know right where
mine is, under the workbench where it is nice and safe. Other tools all
have the guards in place and working, but the TS had it' removed the
first day.
Mine is safely mounted on the overhead arm with the dust collection hose.
I use it almost without exception just for that little edge it gives me.

I use mine when I'm doing an operation that it doesn't interfere with. I can
use all the help I can get. I watched a guy ripping plywood one time stumble
and lay his thumb on the blade when he tried to catch himself. Wouldn't have
lost the thumb if the guard was in place.
