Id say you're bang on about the material being what counts. But I'd still maintain the only way to have AOE so far off to matter would be a piston so far forward the first teeth on the sector dont even reach the mesh surface, which can be fixed without cutting any teeth, or a sector gear who's center to rack distance is off, in which case the entire mechbox is improperly designed and no amount of sorbo pad is gonna fix a bad mesh.
If someone can give me a kinematic/mechanical design reason for why I'm full of shit though, I'd be interested to hear it. Til then, there will be no shaving off of teeth in my boxes for any reason I've seen.
