Dean.......Like you, I don't leave my stylus running in the lead-out groove for long, but the sound of the stylus in the lead-out groove forces me to move immediately to lift the tonearm, whereas a tonearm lifter would allow the freedom to approach the turntable when I am ready. I have even drifted off to sleep listening to piano recordings only to wake up an hour later to the repetitious sound of the stylus circling the lead-out groove. That becomes unnecessary stylus wear that doesn't need to happen. A quality tonearm lifter would be a true convenience for analog aficionados.
