Maybe you've never used a DT spoke wrench. The design of these affords quick and positive engagements (not like the other four-sided wrenches, including unfortunately the new Park Master Mechanic wrench) for a slip-free build that's as quick as any two-sided wrench. You can also leave it on the spoke you're working on, walk away (to get a beer for example), and know exactly where you left off when you come back. And the clever designers even left a hole on one of the handle flats in case you want to tie a string from the wrench to your shop apron or TS-2 to mitigate it "walking away".
