MK4S kit - Accidentally confused m3n nuts with m3nN nuts

Like the title. During assembly at one point I got pretty tired and confused the m3n nuts with each other. I used the nN nuts on the X axis assembly of the orange parts that go onto the y axis rails instead of the single n m3n nuts. I noticed this when I ran short on nN for the bed heater assembly but had more m3nN at home to make up for it, I was thinking the kit somehow came short a few nuts lol. Does this matter at all? They don’t stick out or get in the way or anything and it’s a bit late to go back and easily disassemble the part as I’m practically done with the kit assembly and the wired nextruder won’t allow me to remove the x axis. Does this introduce any structural change? Or doesn’t matter at all?

So you used the hex nuts instead of the square nuts?

It shouldn't cause any issues as long as they are not sticking out and you can get screws into them and tighten down successfully. You have to be careful the nuts do not turn freely in their groove when you insert the screws though.

It's a tough one as trying to remove the nuts from slots will prove difficult. Personally if it were me my OCD would take over and I would end up either trying to remove or re-printing the parts.......lol
