The brace does work, we tested it and we don't release anything that doesn't offer an improvement in some form or other.
Maybe you need to reserve judgement before you cast it to the ' I've not tried it so it doesn't work bin'
As for tweaking plastic with a 3mm bolt. You can!

My apologies .
The way the adjustment works is with shims.
not by slackening screws as first suggested.
