It's not about how tight the spec is - it's about how poorly designed the connector is if it is easy to partially connect.

You can have very tight specs and not be failure prone.

If a partial connection, a very common event, is not problematic with other GPUs but very problematic with this one - yes, it's correct to affirm being so tightly within spec is a problem, as deviations in real world usage are more than expected.

It's not that common with previous connectors though. They snapped in and without a full connection did not work.
