It looks neat, but it also looks like a big lever and possible strain on the scope port... which will clearly affect its service life.

Is there any real reason for that cringe?! it definitely will put less strain on the scope port.
Also, LEDs can be more visible from the front view, especially while using the DHO900 on the vesa mount.

Hmm, that mini-HDMI part is intended to be 'in-pcb' mounted, e.g. requiring a cut-out. If you can find another mini-hdmi port that's 'just flat' that'd be good :)

The cringing part is that it's quite deep, but more importantly, it's a single-supplier part, it costs 10 times more then a regular connector (9 euro's a piece), will make routing probably quite hard, also because it's a through-hole part.
Yes, the led's visibility will be better, but then there's also 'side-entry' RGB leds. I simply used this one because I used it in a different project (and it's nice and big, side entry RGB's tend to be super small)
UK:
I agree with you point. I've just recall that also already used 'side-entry' leds on several projects.

LCSC part number C2682170, you mean? Doesn't look to me like it would need a cutout. Were you looking at the same drawings?

No, I used the wrong part, well a different part, which did have the cutout :) I saw the name in the pdf, which made me trigger that it was the wrong one. I have too many HDMI parts in my lcsc library now :p
