These are probably difficult to mold. If you look on the backside of
a plate, you will see that there is a small cavity behind the stud.
This is to avoid large portions of molded material at one place, as I
understand it. I think the structure is more solid when the "walls"
are of a consistent width. When there are two studs facing each other
with the "male" part outwards, there will be a fair lump of ABS in one
spot.
One solution is to make the studs hollow, though, like in the 1x1
plates with side loop. That's probably a feasible solution.
