And the section of ‘body tube’ glued to the other side of those discs - opposite the plastic nozzles - keeps the entire display unit from pushing all the way up into the base of the 1b. Possibly THAT tube is too ‘tall’ and not allowing the main round disc to slip a little bit into the base of the 1b.

Just some thoughts....

There's actually a .039" (or 1 mm) difference. The calipers say the diameter of the display nozzle disk is 2.627" and the ID of the rear cavity is 2.666".

The insertion-limiting BT allows the display nozzle unit to go in to the rear cavity until it's recessed just flush. Even with more insertion it still wouldn't stay on it's own.
