Perhaps I missed some talk on this, but why is it useless?

I think useless is a little too far - the locking up of the screen is a bit irritating (but then you can lock the meter up by pressing a button too soon after boot). The clicking of the relays is annoying, but how often are you going to be using both? As to the relay life, having them switching constantly will kill them quicker, but I know I will only be using both readings very occasionally, so its not really going to affect me - and I'm guessing Keysight thought it wouldn't be used very much. So the only concern for me is accidentally leaving the AC second measurements on - I would much prefer a soft button that enabled 2nd measurements for only 5 readings or so.
