I think those barbs have some holding power, as the studs usually break off on me. But I think the rear hole is slotted, as you say - vertically I believe. That may be why I have an intact rear locator: I may have rotated the strip 90° in removing it (after breaking off the front stud).
Bottom line (pun intended) is that I always manage to stick the strips on crooked, and blame it in the lack of intact, erect nubbins to guide me.
