This is different:

But is it really a better design or just typical modern German
engineering for the sake of engineering?

I say, yes, it's better, if only to save the space behind the saw.

Even if it isn't rigid enough to maintain accurate angles?



Who said it wasn't rigid enough?

Who said it was?

I haven't used one, so I don't know.
But I have used some tube sliders that had way too much play for the
price.

Bingo. So does this thing address that problem or does it make that
worse to gain something else?
