The number of people I know personally, in real life, who have had this issue with their twin but not their previous car is more than I can count on one hand. The number of twins owners I know in real life can be counted on two hands.

The studs suck and they cross thread on their own.
There's a difference between cross threading and galling. No stud gets cross-threaded on its own.
