Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

There are a number of brands and designs. I've seen some that have some play or movement no matter how tight, and others that tighten tight. If you have some mechanical skill and understanding, consider taking it apart and seeing if you can fix the problem, or if the design is positive for movement beyond the trace play (toothed design or similar).
