Removing a Splitter

Since my splitter is in the kerf of the blade, is there any reason to remove it to use a sled? I never do, but am I overlooking a safety issue? Michael Dresdner: As long as it does not impinge on the sled, there’s no reason to remove it. Whether it does or not has more to do with the sled design than the splitter design, but either could affect it. In your case, it seems clear there is no problem either way.
