    I swear I've seen another post somewhere showing this but I can't find it via search. In the attached photo that screw and washer is a hack from the factory correct?

    If I flip the flipper button nut around it would then be installed as intended and that washer and screw can go away right?

    But if the stock nut were flipped around wouldn't this become a non issue?

    Quoted from zacaj:

    Cheap as opposed to what? Cheap would be not having the washer at all

    Why would it?

    Orders of magnitude more surface area pressed against the cabinet?
