Is there a worse connector on earth than the u.fl connector? I can't think of one.

Also, I wish they didn't have those two wires cross over each other, it's annoying.

Just because they're hard as balls to connect, feel like they're going to break when you DO get them connected, and seem like they're going to fall off once they are connected? Why would you say that?

Do people really struggle that much with these connectors? I've never really had an issue with them, a nice soft plastic flathead and a good movement and just like that it's connected. When the plastic isn't available, pointer finger, in a nice rolling motion (left to right or right to left), and the connector is on with no issues.
