Well, my usecase was on a Heidenhain cnc-controller, where G43 is implizit applied everytime. Therefore the special tooltable entry. My "lazy" colleagues work on fanuc controllers, where you have to code G43 to have toollength applied, so as I work on a fanuc now as well, but I don't code without G43. Too often I had the case, where I got "simple jobs", just one tool, just this or that ... ... and then the boss comes: could you add this or that ... ... and then you run into troubles without G43.
