That's because the mask in the read head has to match the line pitch of the
wheel. The read head actually senses 3-4 lines at once. The mask is a
pattern of lines that match the lines on the wheel. When they line up you
get transmission between the lines. When they are out of phase the light is
blocked.

A disk with milled slots might allow you to get away with passing light
through just one slot but you should still have a mask slot for clean
switching. I guess it depends on what one expects out of the thing.
