Z-Axis Alignment Dots and Ferrules?

So, a question or two for Z-Axis owners. I was in a shop looking at the Z-Axis and noticed a couple of things - first there are no alignment dots (as many other high- and lower-end rods have). Second, the ferrules didn't seem as tight when the rod is assembled as say a Helios.

1. Anyone know why Sage didn't just put alignment dots on the rod? Obviously, sight of eye will work too, I was just curious.

2. Bigger concern is the relative ease of twisting rod sections given the ferrules. Over time, do they same as same tightness as new or do they loosen even more?
