Like a funnel, the MicroWave "stripper" guide takes the gyrating line and straightens it before entering the second guide (transition guide), The MicroWave guide does in one guide what it takes the NGC four or more guides to do.

If the reel is properly aligned with the fist guide, I don't see any issues. I am not a surf rod guy but it makes sense.
