Quoted from snaroff:I've never had a coil stop do that (over 13 years and 30-40 pins)...hopefully an uncommon build snafu.
It is more common across several manufacturers. Been that way for a few years. I would imagine they are buying prebuilt flipper mechs and sticking them in. Which is fine.
Though they seem more prone to shipping stress and the coil stop screws coming loose.
