They don't release a stuck rod as easily.

They have been around for years. I don't like them because the rod can
only be inserted at one angle so they aren't as versatile as a normal
"clamp" stinger. But I'd guess that they would work well for one
position (flat, maybe) welding.

Not at all, just as versatile as any.

yes, well you can bend the rod if you want to get into a corner.
