This entire anti-skating thing was caused because years ago the turntable manufactures decided to design their units to accommodate other hi-fi stuff and not consider basic physics.

Skating is often the result of record quality. I have some records that track fine whatever "anti-skating” force is applied. Other records are really bad especially toward the center where the skating force is greatest. I do notice that the outer record grove will sometimes suffer some fuzziness and "chatter" if anti-skating is not applied. I usually track at ¾ gram and I don’t get much skating. If you read the link above it explains this better.
