The green Tact Longinus also has the same problem with the chip prongs.

Dang. So would you suggest being very careful and very gentle with both Tact and Knockout when removing and replacing chips?

I don't own a Knockout yet, but I can certainly say that the green Tact has stress marks after chip removal, not even a single battle.

For the purple Tact, I removed the chip carefully and it does not have any stress marks yet so I guess it is avoidable.

I believe this is due to the clear plastic used, since the material is less flexible. The prongs do hold onto the chip very tightly, and the clicks feel very satisfying as a result.
