Your missing the point, it isn't the sliding, it is that some pieces, 26% in
my case where a totally different key system and when using these bricks
they leave major 1/16th in. gaps in between the steps.
Lego is already planning to replace them and find what may be the problem.
368, 270 good ones and 98 bad ones, that is a High %, plus when devided by
23 sets, they dont devide. Its almost fact that these pieces are not so much
defective, but the wrong piece.
You could make good rotors for Planes et with these other bricks, personally
I think they just got mixed up in packaging.
