Exactly.
What's holding the stock down to the table when the blade it trying to
lift and throw it?
Many things we cut on the table saw aren't heavy enough to stay against
the table surface when cutting.

I've seen guys use two seperate bird's mouth push sticks to try to push
the stock through the blade AND hold it down at the front.

Again I ask, why not use a simple shoe type push guide that controls the
stock in both directions and only takes one hand to use?
