The nubs were wrong and we are fixing that now. Why does that make a difference though?
If you take a look:

Basically on the bearing there is an inner race and an outer race. The outer race doesn't move but the inner race does. The nubs on all gears are smaller than the outer race of bearings, that way the gear doesn't "rub" against the bearing and the nub basically acts as a washer/spacer.

Pretty much the gears have built in spacers.
