        They use it as a seal plug on the exterior base for the vacuum chamber which is then sealed.

        Not ideal but not as bad as it sounds. But still a silly thing to do, especially considering the target audience.

          They weren’t exactly the target audience. It was more like when teenage boys started liking My Little Pony. A complete surprise, but they took advantage of it as well as they could.
