Question about thumb rest relocation

Author: m1964

Today, I had the thumb rest on my R13P moved up by about 12 mm.

When the tech removed the base of the thumb rest, there was a round notch drilled into the body (from the factory), just under the adjustment screw.

However, when I re-assembled the thumb rest (removed from the clarinet), the screw did not protrude beyond the base.

Does anyone know what the purpose of the indentation/notch under the thumb rest is?

Did Buffet use longer screw in the past, requiring extra space under the base of the thumb rest?

Thanks.
