There is a further complication with the current scheme (and with your
proposal) that means that several different "opinions" of the tool
table values can exist at any one time in different parts of the code.
By having each module extract the data from the database when required
this problem is somewhat reduced.

I suspect that it would be difficult for the code which transmits the
tool table in the current structure to know which tools the requesting
code wanted.
Another inelegant feature of the current method is that it enforces a
one-tool-per-pocket limit. I can conceive of a few scenarios where
this is a limitation. (Gang tooling, and a rack changer with
interchangeable racks, for example)
