I'm not sure that it doesn't add more support though I wouldn't consider it
a major issue worth chewing to death.  However, how can it not touch the
pin?

I do too, not from a mystic belief that it's better in any way, but 
rather that it's the result of my bushing method, with my caul choice, 
based on expedience and function. I consider it another profoundly 
non-event, much like so many others that are chewed to death here. If it 
ain't touching the pin, it ain't in the system, and don't functionally 
exist.
