Still, does anyone know why the engineers wouldn't have put a drain plug in the hydros? Just curious.....

Prolly, cause we can attest a hydro will go 30 years with factory oil so why spend the cost of a drill/Tap operation and a plug, it all adds up to $$$.
Just like they eliminated Zerk fittings because folks didn't grease them.
The compression sleeves are also called "ferrules"
