Apple pencil (Gen 2) gap

So anybody knows why the Apple Pencil has a gap between the tip and the body? Is it intentional? Design flaw?



iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi

Cars are meticulously refined and detailed, but, yet, still need body panel and door gaps!

Same deal when manufacturing anything with mating or adjacent parts.

There are variances and tolerances designed and engineered into EVERYTHING!

Nothing is made perfect for we humans are NOT perfect!

Some gaps are just needed/necessary.

I am sure Apple design and engineering knew what they were doing when they designed the Pencil.
