This is why some people also noticed similar issues even before engraved rehauts appeared. Back then it was “my dial’s crown isn’t straight”

I respectfully disagree.
The stem can fit in to the movement with a surprisingly noticeable degree of
offcentredness.
Not saying issues are never down to dial feet. But remember not all Rolex dials use dial feet either.
