Turntable Speed


Hello Forum, I'm getting back into record listening after a long hiatus. Please forgive the naive question, but here it is.  My former 1981 turntable had a speed control with the little window where you could fine-tune the speed if it was a little off. I've noticed current turntables don't have that. Reasons?
Thank you.

I have a mint condition Yamaha P-550 turntable that I bought new in 1983 that also has the strobe light adjustment.  I had it completely serviced to set up a turntable system for my youngest son a couple of years ago, and it dials in the speed like butter now.  Very nice, low maintenance, budget turntable.
