You never know. I've worked with designers with 20+ years of
experience who totally forget about mounting holes, forget about
clearance around screw heads or move holes on the next batch while
there are 100's of cases in stock with holes that match the 'old'
version. Did I already mention small 2mm / 78mil mounting holes? If it
where one project you might call it a mistake. On almost every project
its a real nuisance.
