I think you severely underestimate the ability for "most people" to understand what they are doing. We've seen it on here a few hundred times. Some PO just finds it too difficult to repair the spring pocket, so it gets mounted solid. We've seen them welded, solid pieces jammed in, rubber hose in place of the springs....Lots of stuff. "People" are pretty ignorant really. Like sanding a crank journal with emry cloth to take out scuff marks from a seized rod and calling it "polished".
