Just to not have to pull the water pump pulley off alone makes this worth it.

I like your tool, very nice
10mm ratcheting wrench and a 10 mm fixed end wrench, Take the ratcheting one and spin it towards the fixed, the fixed will "tighten" the other will loosen up. Then its a game of : for the 4 bolts as you spin the water pump and remove the bolts.
