Too right!
There are a few makers with PCB pin versions now (Kycon for one) which is
nice but then you are into single source territory. The 9mmx11mm with flat
pins are so common that being able to support them is sometimes
worthwhile. I should tart my footprint up and let others have a look and
see if they like it. Maybe sometime I will. I certainly no longer use
oversize holes for these parts.
