That looks like the missing piece of info that I was wondering. I suppose nothing stops one from having both, and I wonder if that would be prudent. I could relate to the comments about over stressing the cable and pulleys and in a adrenaline situation we may not be self-aware and push the foot too hard. So it looks like we have a reason for something to protect the flight surface from banging over too far, and also the control cable and related from being stressed. Why not both?
