Re: Advantages of the Jaguars?

Actually, I'm going to have to vote against the screws.

If the screws were captured, that's one thing. However, they're not. And they're very easy to completely unscrew. They're also not error-proofed and can be put back in the wrong holes.

The result is that someone could accidently wire them backwards. I'd much rather they get rid of the colored screws and color something that can't be reversed or removed.

I understand that a bit of caution prevent this issue most of the time. But I don't think that anyone can argue that if it CAN happen, it WILL happen.
