The "tweak": I read about it on the forums, I don't remember which one. People realized they could use shims to make the razor more aggressive, and not long after someone figured out that they could loosen the handle to the same end without negatively affecting how the razor handled. And no, it doesn't really clog, it usually gets the area I'm targeting with one stroke (YMMV as they say tho). And it flushes out really well, too. Nothing in there when I disassemble to let it dry.
