Festool is getting prepared to introduce a new tracksaw. It is the TSV
60 KEB. This track saw has an additional blade that acts as a scoring blade. Splinter free cuts should be a thing of the past with this saw.

I'd rather have splinter-free cuts be a thing of the future. ;-)

I do not have an elaborate set up to ensure exact rip and cross cut accuracy with track saw that I get with the table saw. I view the table saw as the gold standard for precise, repeatable cuts, regardless of how good the track saw does finish cuts.

I cut a lot of sheet goods and end up with pretty big pieces, ie. 23.75"
by 57", cabinet bottoms. This is difficult to do on a TS as it is
beyond most rip/cross cut capacities. If I can easily make a cut on a
TS, I use the TS but I very often, including the kitchen redo, that I am
in the middle of, make final cuts with the track saw.
Because I have a portable work bench, 40" x 96", to lay sheet goods on I
can very easily make accurate cuts with the track saw. FWIW I DO NOT
use a tape measure to mark my cuts for the track saw. I use a
Woodpeckers story stick.
Will I buy this new Festool saw? Probably not as I get pretty decent
cuts with the TS75 and cross cuts in sheet good are 99% of the time
hidden inside a dado. And if my first cross cut is a shallow one, to
score the veneer, I get little to no tear out. But if I got rid of the
TS I would probably get this saw.

I think the day that you get rid of your TS, I will be attending your funeral. :-)
