    Yeah, the connector spec is definitely bad given the incidents we've seen. I was just pointing out it's not actually the mating cycle limit that's the issue here (especially given older connectors like the 8 pin evidently don't have this problem, despite equivalent mating cycle ratings), but rather the rest of the spec.
