Really bothers me that they would introduce what is a systematic weakness in the Mantis to something that doesn't need to have it.
If you have a flat object it doesn't matter, but there's always?crap sticking out of electronics, like heatsinks and whatnot.
Also you want the ability to tilt your board in all directions so you are looking sideways at solder joints around a QFN and stuff, quite often I can't tell for sure if a joint is good just from a top view alone.

I dunno, maybe with 8" WD it's a non-issue.
