I've had a wired work bench that I built about 40 years ago. 3 leg modules made from 4 x 4 cedar. Outlets inset into leg. Amazing how old becomes new again.

I've owned a Craftsman radial arm saw for 46 years. Started with a 10 inch when I was 18 and upgraded to a 12" many years ago. I've never owned a table saw -- the hidden blades just scares me. When I was a bout 12 I wathed a guy cut a big chunk out of his thum on a swa he had just built. It left an impression.
One of the things I like about the radial arm is you always know where the blade is -- and I always make sure I know where all my fingers are.
As for safety you have to learn how to use a radial arm saw properly when doing cross cuts. Always keep your arm stiff and rotate your body. As for the blade grabing and pulling the saw toward you there are only 2 issues I've experienced over many years. When cross cutting dados you have to be sure to use the stiff arm method. All those blades do try to grab the cut. Same for cross cutting round material -- it wants to roll. For cross cutting I generally use a 12 inch, 100 tooth carbide tipped blade.
I do own a mitre saw and it has reduced the amount I use my radial arm saw but I'd never get rid of my radial arm saw. With an extension table it's particulary useful for long straight ripping cuts.

I was going to comment on the casters but 1st comment covered it.
