The ball not being totally centered.causes it to exert a inward pressure on the yoke. If it was bottomed out in center of V notch it would exert less inward pressure. Think of it as a ramp that happens.to end with a V. As other have said it was designed that way. If it contacted other side of the V it would start to press ball in and out on yoke.
It works and works well. Better than a lug in a small hole over an inch out on the end of.a skinny ejector rod that rotates and can't have any pressure on it or it will effect effort needed to turn cylinder.
