Why not add a small ratchet ?

You got me there! It certainly isn't the cost as HF sells them way cheap - I was just trying to reduce the kit to the absolute bare minimum.. My Brother-in-Law gives me grief even for carrying this much - according to him all I need is a Visa Card and a cell phone.

What happens if you need a socket and a 9/16 wrench at the same time??

Aha! you are thinking ahead! If you look at the carabineer in the photo you'll see there is one wrench not part of the original set - that is an extra 9/16ths to hold the sockets in case needed to keep a bolt from spinning.. So in other words there are two 9/16ths in this kit. I should have mentioned that and good question.
