I dont entirely agree with your statement. A RA finder is a damn pain to use
by itself for the purpose of star hoping on a dob, unless you also have a telrad.
A straight through finder although harder on the neck is alot easier and quicker
when using the two eyed approach. Which is kinda like having a telrad on
one eye and a straight through finder on the other at the same time without
having to chop and change. I guess this is in the end subjective to the user.

I have terrible neck problems... but I still prefer a straight through finder.
