I've seen some cable vendors list their 0.78mm 2-pin cables as being compatible with 0.75mm, but couldn't that cause issues? Here's an example:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F1VMQ3C/

"Pin diameter: 0.78mm(suit for 0.75mm pin hole earphone)"

Under compatible earphones, they list "KZ ED16, ZSA, ES4, ZSR, ZST, ZS10, ZS5, ZS6, ZS3, ES3, ED12,TFZ,TFZ King Pro,TFZ QUEEN, TRN-V10, TRN-V20, **** QT2, SIMGOT EN700PRO, AZLA ,KINERA SEED etc." I know that some (most?) are 0.75mm according to manufacturer specs... so wouldn't a larger diameter cause a problem? At the very least, couldn't it cause the headphone to not be able to maintain the same socket friction with a 0.75mm cable connector if you used a 0.78mm for a while?
