Like any manufacturer they are always trying to improve on a new product I suspect. Folks will just have to get used to tightening the screw to a proper torque spec or put no. 61 o-ring or teflon on it instead. To me either or are not a big deal. We know already that at least 40 inch lbs works well apparently or the straight torque method. Its the owners choice from there. Myself I do own a torque wrench that works in inch lbs.
