Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened?


Curious as to the demise and downfall of the seemingly short lived linear tracking TT.
Just from a geometry point of view I would have thought a linear arm should be superior to one with a fixed pivot that sweeps through an arc.
Obviously there is much more to it than that, sort of the reason for this thread.
I am genuinely interested in trying one out for myself as well.

Linear tracking is for you if you want to always be adjusting, fiddling, and modifying your setup, alignment and configuration and you are inclined, driven, and motivated to repeatedly make these system adjustments, alterations, and calibrations on an ongoing, consistent, and repeated basis.
