Whether or not it's using a noticeable amount of power, it's rotating mass and tends to resist changes in rotational speed. Just having fewer moving parts attached to that belt should make a difference in responsiveness if nothing else. I think.

This is going to be one of those things that sits on the shelf for a while. I've obviously got a lot more reading to do.
