Or
Being a mechanical engineer by trade, no it won't. A slot would work no differently to a hole under the effect of a rotational force perpendicular to the normal plane. It's not exactly a figure of 8.
There should be no interface to speak of when slotting correctly if that's what you infer. If that's the case, I'd find a better machinist. Drilling the holes 90 degrees out is fine, but I answered the question Niall asked.
Niall, it's easy to do either. Redrilling is plenty quick. I had 100 done during a Rover group buy.
