That's for stapling thicker amounts of pages. It's easier than the regular bending inwards and holds large amounts of paper better.

It is just an other way to grasp paper. usually of the thicker type, like card board. the clip outward reach gives the secured parts a stronger hold, by grasping a larger area. Hope this helps. Will.

You can use the "outward" bending of the legs if you are only tacking sheets of paper together temporarily. The staples are eisier to remove from that position.

That setting is used for Pinning, so that it can be removed easily. Try it on clothing instead of using regular pins, it works great.

Why not? I think it has to do with the holding power. That is a guess though.

In order to staple things to a surface such as a bulletin board, or wall. :)
