Drawing upon my hazy memories, I seem to remember that Lutz's first
version of the 925 had the wrong angle. But he fixed & re-released it
(I think). Also, thinking about the what the correct angles should be
for all the angle connectors, they are evenly-angled going from
90-degrees to 180-degrees, with 5 possible angles. I know this because
they duplicate the possible positions from the older toothed angle
connectors, LDraw part #4273. So the correct angles should be:
90
112.5
135
157.5
180
Which means that the part with the 120-degree angle must be incorrect.
