When I  have served as a subdeacon one of the functions has been to point
the  readings in the altar book. It can be a useful aid even for a  very
experienced priest to help him/her not lose his/her place. I usually  don't
bother pointing the Lord's Prayer  though.>>>>
 
Don't you think there's a difference between those sections of the  Liturgy
that are said by all and those that are strictly for the presider?   IOW,
clergy reading the Collects off the Prayer Book is different from  communal
parts - the Creed, the Lord's Prayer, etc.

during the Liturgy.
