One can easily raise the backchecks. Harder to lengthen the tails.

If the stack is wrong you’d have to have a shorter tail in yourboring distance which won’t be good. Raising the stack puts the stack in abetter place.

     Seems to me that raising the stack, and taking the slack up with the capstans,  is the same as shortening the tails, since the back-checks are effectively lowered,(they don't go up with the stack). 
wondering?
