Strangely I'm on Boing's side in this.

If you just take the rotary table you

a) leave them with a big hunk of scrap iron, on the assumption that
if all you want is the small piece, then the big piece is scrap.

b) this means somebody has to unbolt the thing.

It just sounds like one of those jobs that starts out taking 5 minutes,
ends up consuming an hour of employee time.
