Why must manufacturers act like they know what is best for their customers when many of us already know that the converse is true.>

The play in the holes is due to the construction which is different from the other two models you mentioned (MB is nailed, GM has a plastic injection moulded comb). No one is claiming to know what's best for the customers. As I indicated in my posting, immediately after writing it I phoned Trossingen and had a lengthy conversation with the person responsible for quality control, who will be addressing the issue right away. If that's not listening to your customers, what is?

That's it on this topic from me, I'm off to London for a few days and won't have e-mail
