Takes 3 times longer and you are not going to get it placed perfectly,
the line will not be perfectly straight and you will likely have a

have to pick them up and place them.

I grok the lift+move concept with the anti-skid strips on them, but
why wouldn't it be easy to align the track to its previous cut for a
near perfect continuance of the cut?

That would depend on your eye sight. You typically line up with a shiny
pencil mark. If you stop mid stream you have a kerf to line up with.
Not saying it would be hard but time consuming to get it perfect and you
won't know if it is perfect until after you make the cut.
My expectations are for better than a TS cut yours may not be.

I'm OK with it being a couple RCHes off. Aren't you?

No.

OK. I'm comfy with a 60-1/2 plane to soften any small ridge, but I
guess it would depend on the necessity of absolute precision, wouldn't
it? Each case would be different.
