I've found that the scrap developed in this sort of part is pointless if
wave soldering is required anyways. We used only two of the pins for
retention (recommended press-fit), allowing the wave to do the rest of the
work (oversize).
This was in higher power connector, where a damned worm-screw or vise was
necessary to get insertion half the time. Manual, expensive and error-prone.
Only really justified in no-solder assembly (wish on!).
