This type of thinking goes against everything I was taught or did as a Millwright for 33 years. We never wanted a cup and cone style bearing to be a slip fit but to each his own. Carry on. Lol
Think about the bearings on the front spindles of all of our own cars! None of them are press fit. They're not even a tight slip fit. Just a slide on fit. And after a bearing burns up and gouges the spindle, how many of us have just filed down the burrs on the spindle and put another bearing on when there was no resistance at all. These cars are still running at pretty high speed at the track, and I haven't seen any front wheels fly off yet.
