I agree with this, that’s a very big benefit!
However, for me it’s a non-issue, as I mentioned, I have a lift with one of those drain pans that extend up to the car. It is a non-issue, I can pull the drain plug without a drop of oil anywhere, even when it’s hot. If I had to lie on my back with the car on ramps, I probably would get the Fumoto valve as well.
