    "IF" you can use a powered graver to cut time "without quality
    loss", why woudn't you use the powered tool?" 

    You're listening, but not hearing aren't you. 

    Okay I'll put it in another way. 

    If you can use a powered graver to cut time "with quality loss", why
    would you use the powered tool?" 

    If you agree with this statement, then you agree with the first one,
    because they say the same thing. 

Regards Charles A.
P.S. Also didn't say power assisted engraving.
