I have explained the situation to many people, and when they shim their next set nice n' tight, they never have an issue again. This isn't just some BS pulled out of a hat. There are many people that share my opinion. It works, so I'm gonna keep on doing it the way I do and keep on recommending that others do as well. I've seen too many issues come from doing things other ways. I'm happy to hear your method is working for you, but for the great majority it causes problems...
