Thanks

It's just that there is only one person to do this rather than two, so it's a little more difficult.

Kinda hard to glance at the benches or table when you have 7 bodies directly in your line of vision, which happens now in the new 2-man mechanic.

Not saying that at all. I'm saying the new 2-man mechanic cuts outs a lot of vision. And the supposed pay-off of facilitating communication is not worth the trade-off, IMO.
Employing the new mechanic is no problem at all. I'm just failing to see the benefit.
