Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

I think the reasoning is...

that moving the weight toward the center of pivot decreases the force necessary to accelerate the arm toward the center of the record (1/m^2) while the weight will have to increase by (1/radius), so while the weight will have to be heavier, there's a net decrease in radial inertia.

So radially there's decreased effective mass while maintaining a fixed effective vertical mass (no acceleration in the vertical axis).

Have I got that right?
