Other than that annoyance, I've loved mine any time I need to get under the car. For me, it makes oil changes fun. I can get on the creeper and check the rest of the car from front to back too.

I too found this annoying. Ordered 4 of these which arrived today: https://flyinmiata.com/products/fm-jack-adapter
Using the narrower slot on the FM jack adapter it will stick (press fit) to certain areas of the pinch weld on a GR86, luckily it seems to coincide with the lift points using a 5000TL.
