Two of your respondents are right - skating force is the resultant of vector addition of non-aligned forces. Those who state (wrongly) that skating force results from interaction between stylus and grooves should observe the behaviour of a stylus on an ungrooved LP side. They should learn the principles of vector algebra. It might improve their inelegantly-expressed mood.
It is true that the counteracting bias force that one sets (if one chooses to set it) is a compromise. It is correct at only one radius on the disc. I can think of nothing better to do than to set it for the mid-radius of a typical LP.
