Thanks Forrest, I do have a mortise pal and it works great, but more and more I find it unable to cut where I need to cut and I find using the router for this to be noisy and not much fun. Maybe this is weird, but I feel like I am working in some awful repetitive factory job instead of having fun enjoying my hobby. For through tenons and wedged tenons, it doesn't sound fun to chisel out square edges from rounded mortises either. I think I will always use the mortise pal, especially where it shines the best, but I think I really do need and want a mortiser. Thinking the Steel City will be the one I get.
