Josh....looks like you answered your own questions....I think the answer
amounts to asking yourself which you would prefer doing (presumably after a
big wind):

a) replacing a broken rotator
b) loosening the clamps and turning the mast back to where it was

The pin might keep the mast from moving, but the stress might break
something in the rotator.   Personally, I never pin.
