Same Q I asked my doctor....so my femur was fractured at 2 different spots, misaligned during first surgery + bone infection in '71 and therefore it has is no channel in it as you see in tibial for comparison.
For stability, durability and perfect alignment, he went different way, I guess...
I am not complaining, works flawlessly.... after Houtman sent two grease nipples..

Good deal. So long as it works for you, that's all that really matters.
I used to work for a company that makes those parts, so I have a really good understanding of what I'm looking at.

Looks like the perfect place for an RLET to guarantee increased mobility

Plus it could double as a tiny little knee pad

Loathe as I am to be the Forum Wet Blanket, I think you should exercise great caution in applying an RLET to anything other than a clutch or brake lever on a motorcycle.
