I noticed that and thought "WTF?" That's a very odd design that would definitely catch me off guard. I'd love to know/hear the reason for that change.

I assume that's not one that sucks the card all of the way in. You just insert. I'd think for chip cards, you'd have to insert it pretty far which wouldn't leave much card sticking out.

I'm guessing maybe it's a way to make the mechanism less deep, but I am probably way off base.
