Hmmm. I wonder.

I will very closely check the DOs after fixing.

I did not successfully cold set because the stays were like spring steel (wouldn't hold a mm of bend, even after spreading to 165mm, yet relatively easy to spread by hand) and now my check for parallel with a homemade tool feels cursory.

Edit PS
Wouldn't that misalignment become evident while setting up the RD?
