I agree that the QR is backwards sounds like BS, but nothing succeeds like success. The dealer solved the problem, and it might have nothing to do with the QR being in backward, but possibly something else was affected when he reversed it.
Who knows, and I, for one, avoid challenging someone who has the advantage of actually seeing the part in question.
For me problem solved, usually means discussion closed.
I'm pleased you don't require an apology; I don't think any reasonable person would, and one isn't forthcoming.
I appreciate your wisdom in declining to pontificate when you haven't seen the part in question. Indeed the seat for the ends of the release mechanism may not be the same on both sides. You'd have to have seen every such part ever made to know that it's not possible.
I can't actually be bothered to look and see.
I agree that "problem solved" should make an end to the matter.
I'm honoured to have been able to upset some highly respected masters. I humbly admit that I'm a disrespectful sod by nature.
