I suppose we could go back to hiding behind the 'raft' and stay right behind the catcher. Some would say that working directly above the catcher's head was never a bad thing anyway. There were days when working lower level ball when I turned into a human backstop and I wish I had the outside protector back.

The adoption of the inside protector and the slot position, IMHO, improved your view of the zone, and also the low pitch.
