I wouldn't suggest it. Knowing him he'll kill 3 capacitors, about 100 transitors and destroy the slot in the process.

Make sure the little white clips are being clipped into the top most notch on the RAM sticks.

For people like you to accidentally mess up memory installation

Just kidding man. To be totally honest, I'm not really sure!

I don't know for sure but sometimes there are cuts made in the manufacturing process so the piece will fit onto a die or for alignment in another process. Those cutouts would fit nicely onto pins for alignment.
