True Utility HandSpan

This looks like a really neat key tool gadget. Adjustable wrench for your keychain. The mini review on Toolguyd was informative so I copied a link in below.

I don't get the point of this...
Isn't the point of an adjustable wrench to give you extra grip and leverage?
It does give extra grip but... no leverage, no handle? I can't see how I could fix a leaky bathrom pipe with that...

At 20mm the water lines would be the only bathroom lines this would fit. This is one of those tools you carry for those times when someone else needs an adjustable wrench and doesn't have one.

I have a small ID/OD caliper from Empire that looks like it might make for a comparable crescent wrench. Same premise, as I've turned a few nuts with it, mainly to see if I could. Actually, it's better, since the remainder of the ruler acts as a handle. I really see no purpose for this item other than gadget factor.
