Those are pretty lousy when you get further out from the axis of rotation.

Yeah, but Index prices out at like $500 plus labor to put it together.
This has the potential for:
* way less material cost
* way less assembly, and
* way higher reliability due to fewer moving parts
And potentially higher repeat accuracy because you don't have the rotational joints to deal with. Those are pretty lousy when you get further out from the axis of rotation.
