1301 Integrated nozzle heater block: what's the 2.5mm hole? #8

Interested in the integrated nozzle design. It's similar to J head Nozzle. But what is the use of 2.5mm connecting the heater and sensor? It cannot be manufactured at all.

It has threads in it, it's used to fix the heater and sensor in place.

This make sense. I believe there are two set screws to secure the heater and sensor. However, the STEP file and the 2d drawing are both wrong: the set screw hole is at wrong location.
