Seems like all the clamping options are based at the edges of the workbench – with nothing in the middle (holdfasts for example). Also since the middle part has to accommodate the pipe clamps which go through it, It leaves it useless for any other purpose – such as storage, or access to holdfasts/other clamps in the middle of the bench.

A personal preference you could say :) I just find it although nice and unique, a bit lacking for it’s main purpose – a work surface for woodworking.

Edited: not trying to sound too negative – I do think it’s a cool workbench…:)
