More conserving of horizontal real estate. And while I'm not going to add yet another potential loose connection to the home switch setup, these bobs I have have such poor terminals that I will cobble up a distribution point for all the stuff that needs 5 volts. 2 bobs and 2 points on the opto so far as 5 volt loads. As for home/limits, these cheap bobs, intended for a Mach system, already have pullups so all they'll have to do is pull to ground with a microswitch.
