I'm also not a fan of the non-latching connectors. We tried it and it ended up being a mistake. We switched to wago connectors and were quite happy. There are latching .1" options though.

EDIT: I'm also a little worried about the through hole stuff. I doubt it will short and hopefully they align with the gaps between the fins on the case but why risk it when you can do a single sided board or 4+ layers and keep the bottom clean?
