For what it's worth, I can say that Harry Fleenor, a very renowned and
highly reputed Rollei repairman is on the Rollei list, and he doesn't seem
to have the problems you mention. I guess that by giving some advice he can
also benefit from the exposure he gets. I would say that in this case, it's
a win, win situation for everybody on the list IMHO.
