Because they don't want to?

Because they are as happy and excited with their way of doing things as anybody else may be with theirs?

Hey -- you asked

NOT criticising the 'ski's at all ---
I think they are a GREAT idea -- for some projects and some people.
I thought they were a great idea back in 1979 when I read about them in a Black and Decker how-to book I bought when I got my first router.
(they used wood rails and an edge guide - but the concept and the result was pretty much the same).

But I don't buy that anyone who doesn't follow this procedure - or any other specific pet procedure is - by definition -- ill informed or whatever --

Sorry --
