@gloriouscow One might think "well no one would make such a mistake, duh!" but it's actually super easy to accidentally do this. I've had it happen with mere 8-bin chips even... (Ironically I'm thinking of socketed OPAMPs here as I don't have so much experience with PCs where you could actually swap chips out, but in other words it's still a thing.)

The worst thing was I had one that bent enough that when I tried to bend it back with pliers it broke off.
