Also, I like to dial down my return so having that feature is perfect for my application. I run mine at about 80%, but can run it up to 100% or slow it down if I change my mind. I like having that controllability.

Ya, I suppose if things are setup that way, it's useful. I don't suffer from any of that and am fine with just "On". I also dislike additional cords and controllers and such, but I guess if there's an application for it, all good.
