Clarification, Samtse....the finger lift is standard. The "option" for some has been to remove it, and just cue using the arm wand itself. It actually is easy to maneuver in that fashion. I can see where some people would still prefer to cue with the finger lift.
None of the tables I've had in recent years have had arm lifters on them, and I've never trashed a cartridge (and I can be clumsy!)
