I may have simply kept up the habit after using older machines that did not have the horizontal pin.

Hold the thread spool in your left hand.
Pull a 12-14" or so length of thread off the spool with your right hand.
Continue holding the thread end in your right hand as you place the thread against the side of the spool.
It will wrap around itself if the spool's wrong end is UP.
Just reverse the spool and put it on the spindle.
