RE: that's right

the "idler" is just what it calls itself, an idler. Typically it is used in a gear train scenario to change the direction of rotation of the "driven" wheel (platter).

Repeating myself here, (sorry), the benefit from having a few wheels connected up within a driving system is the resistance toward any minute slowing action caused by modulating stylus drag. Hence the more dynamic musical reproduction of an idler turntable compared to any other type.
