Lew,
Of course some people prefer Stevenson alignment for various reasons.....however the vast majority of audiophiles are using Lofgren A(Baerwald) because of the lower overall distortions.
The real point of all this is that Raul selected the Stevenson alignment (which he doesn't use himself)........to prove that my 233mm P to S distance is 0.3mm out?
Instead of having to concur that I have the tonearm set up correctly for interchangeability of headshells (according to Baerwald)........he will grasp at the ridiculous to avoid admitting defeat?
It demonstrates the almost psychotic paranoia which governs his behaviour.
If you remember about 2 or 3 years ago.....there was an entire Thread here on Audiogon which discussed all the Pros and Cons of the various geometries.....and even personalised geometries which one can adapt for certain requirements?
Dertonearm provided sufficient evidence in long and protracted postings.....which demonstrated the sheer lack of credibility and understanding that Raul has about this whole subject.
I hope that Thread is still in the Archives but I doubt it as Raul became more and more belligerent and personal....which is his Modus Operandi whenever cornered?

Stevenson - a variation on Löfgren geometry optimized for low distortion at the inner groove at the expense of increased distortion elsewhere.The Vinyl Engine Calculator is designed for this most popular (and lower distortion producing) geometry although they do have calculators for the others if you so desire?
