Anyone who knows much about cutting grain with a binder uses the carrier. You want the bundles in a windrow to make shocking easy as possible. If I'd have cut grain and not used the bundle carrier I'd have done without supper...my grandfather was the thresherman and didn't put up with any nonsense. The grain was used like treasure and cut and shocked in the morning when it was a little cooler and the grain didn't shell too easily. I was taught how to run the binder right, constantly making adjustments to accomodate the varying conditions. It's true the big 8-10 ft. pto tractor binders make a lot of bundles, but you can still windrow the bundles neatly with the carrier...just don't get in a hurry. Pay attention to what you're doing and don't be distracted by the people with cameras and God knows who else who stops to watch.
