    Doesn't do very much to have it through master relay as the e stop already is in that loop.
    Estop would cut power to drives so no point in cutting enable as well?

    Will remove it :)
    To be honest I never use the enable on steppers unless I want to keep holding torque on motors. For instance in Limit situation
    Limits are not an emergency situation so no reason to kill power to the drives but sometimes, like with a heavy Z axis, you will want to keep holding torque.
    In this case I'd use the Enable in series with Limits.

    Otherwise, I just don't use it because of not much point with steppers.
