Craig,   The only ignorant question is  the one you don't ask and you get bit for not having done so.

 You figured it out, the oblong threads provide the  locking force.

Here is an ignorant question: I'm playing around    with nut plates for the

first time and notice that the screw does not    easily thread all the way

through. The last few threads on the nut plate    are

tight/distorted/out-of-round/something and it takes a little effort to    turn

the screw all the way through. I've noticed this on a regular and a    floating

nut plate. Is this done intentionally to provide a degree of    locking?
