You are correct, IF you want to retain the "original" mode of fastner. BUT, if not, then there is an EASY remidy.
1. Go to your craft store & look in the Jewelry section. ( Broaches & pin fastners ) Pick out what you want. go home, remove the existing fastner method & solder or braze your selection on. (note they do make a "liquid solder", it usually works, but sometimes it does not.
2. I have also used a LARGE safety pin & a safety pin type "kilt pin. ( you just need more solder )
