Good point, and I confess I haven't yet used the FB-504. But the fit between the AT bracelet and the lugs is so tight and the tool space is so narrow that it seems almost inevitable to do a bit of lug damage in the process of wiggling it out after pushing in the pins.
Perhaps I'm just excessively concerned about slight damage. Or maybe the 504 is just better than I had expected.
