Two comments:

1.  Your drawings don't show with sufficient fidelity on my screen that I 
can tell what's going on.

2.  Your reasoning defies my version of logic, so I'm not sure that further 
discussion is going to be fruitful.

So at this point I think the most useful expenditure of my time, with 
regard to this subject, is going to be to go out with my feeler gage and 
see what I see.  If there are plenty of instances, as you say, then it 
shouldn't take me long to find some.

Cheers,
