I have an old Tractor Supply catalog listing an add on hand clutch attachment for Farmall tractors. It states advantages like getting the tractor through a gate without getting on the tractor and for operation by children who couldn't reach the clutch pedal.
You'll never see that kind of advertizing statement in this day and age.
Dad had a SC Case I grew up on. The hand clutch worked great for me. I could cultivate corn by myself at the age of 5 or 6. You could "slip" the clutch for backing up to hitch wagons etc. I didn't like the clutch on JDs. Once a kid got it engaged you were never sure if you could get it to disengage when you wanted it to. It probably took more force to operate it than I weighed at the time. Of course I never ran a JD long enough to get used to it.
