Unless you are going to use it in a table with large bits, VC is
meaningless.

Nope. Wrong answer. Those variable speeds also include soft start,
which is definitely something you want.
I have a 1617 and a 1617EVS. The non-soft start is fine.

Which one do you use for dovetailing? Mortising?

C'mon, you can admit it. MUCH nicer when it doesn't jump.
