Hi Peter:
Of course there is clearance in the quill, and thus more play for the spindle run-out. But the amount is minor.
The possible plus of this arrangement is you could turn the head for a taper on one end of the part, while the quill can cut a diameter on the part. Might be a time saver on a production job.

Seems the sliding spindle is called the ‘quill’…

I wish the U3 had this feature but does it affect accuracy? Does it introduce play in the spindle?
