Seems clear that if you order a V9 you're most likely to get a watch with flush solid end links.
I'd guess that as Ryan is picking our watches he's seeing nearly all of them with flush end links and so, to him, this isn't a QC issue...it's just how the watch is.
I think for the near future anyone ordering one of these that can't live with flush links should make sure their TD knows they'll reject one with flush links so that the TD can let them know whether they think it's reasonable and whether they should go through with their order. Just my opinion.
I'm real happy with my V9 and I'm just trying to ignore the flush links when I look at it.
