That's a red herring. You can remove it with an un-bent paperclip or a bit of string. You could knot the string or loop the paperclip around itself to make it easier to remove frequently, if you wanted to, but the device is intended to be removed rarely.

A tilting removal handle could break off, making it IMPOSSIBLE to remove.

I think you could design a tilting removal handle such that if broken off it could still be removed with a paperclip.

In any event, I could.

You're certainly free to market a competing product with a tilting handle.

You should! This started out as a Kickstarter.
