The issue I need to look at is that Moog panels are only 0.050 alum. and
MOTM is 0.125 al
or about 5X more weight, when you toss in the steel pcb bracket.

Moog uses itty-bitty screws that are short enough so that (panel thickness +
rail thickness) < screw length
and it remains to be seen if a standard length screw can be made to work
with MOTM panels
in this fashion.

It's not that the Moog system is a "bad idea", it just might not be suitable
in this case. (PUN alert!)
