The neck adjuster is a version of the curved heel adjuster found on the Early Kaycraft guitars and many of the Kay or house-branded banjos. I've worked on a couple of the original Kaycrafts and the adjustment system was really nasty, but that had more to do with them being made of wood and being decades old.
Bottom line, it's nothing new.
