Hi Drake, I can confirm. The design could be improved.
I’ve noticed that end caps on rails that are flush or a fraction of an inch shorter than the panel frame lose the end caps at a higher rate than when the rail sticks past the module frame. My guess is that module movement from expansion/contraction is popping them off.
