As an aside ...  Had been thinking about why to NOT want hex Socket Head screws on the Classic, and similar products.

When terminals are mounted to a PCB,  often by soldering,  excessive torque might be applied.  If the person torqueing them is not using a properly set,  and calibrated driver.   Any excessive torque might damage the terminal-to-board connection  --  cracking  solder,  or worse.

The cam-out (I think that is what it is called) can help protect against Gorilla Torqueing,  by helping to limit maximum torque values.

Just an added thought,  FWIW.   Vic
