I agree it's a bit of a Kluge to use spacers for VTA like I've done on my P3 but it does work well. It takes only a few minutes to pull the arm off, put the spacer in, and reinstall. Of course you then need to set alignment etc. up pretty much from scratch. So if someone wanted a new cart for a Rega deck it's not a huge deal, but if you like to cart roll it would be pretty cumbersome.
