One disadvantage to that is it becomes cumbersome for the driver to control is there are too many joints, and it also requires a great familiarity with the system in order to make it run well. You have a much more complex coordinate system, and that can cause some confusion, especially once you get on the opposite side of the rack.
This is where the electrical and programming comes in to create a mini control model that is highly intuitive(at least we will try).
