Back-play is the most objective feel measurement. Set the bezel on a click and gently push it the other way without forcing it. Noticeable wobble before it engages means play. A little is common and within normal production, but if one model has visible movement and the other doesn't, that's a real difference you can describe.
Method note for “QC photographs: perspective or a genuinely tilted index?”: use “Request a level straight-on image with the hands…” as a row heading in a proposed working record.

Status for now: unresolved. The claim is plausible, but no controlled comparison has been posted. Until one appears, describe it as 'reported, not verified'. When someone posts a same-frame, grey-card comparison under two lighting conditions, the thread can update the status with a date and a link to that post.
