That's how I use the right-angled scriber. It's much easier and safer (for both your hand and the SIMM's) to lever them out. If you lever them from the correct side of the SIMM PCB the levering action pushes the it back far enough so the plastic securing clip that's part of the SIMM socket disengages from the hole in the SIMM PCB at that end.
