It doesn't. In fact it's quite the opposite. Having screw-in stabilizers means that you cannot take them out and tune them or replace them once the board is already built whereas with plate mount stabilizers, you can just pull the keycaps off, pull that one switch out for the stabilizer you are trying to access, pop the tabs and pull them out.

For screw-in, you need to unscrew the case, take out every last switch to separate the PCB from the plate and THEN you can access them. Pain in the butt to be honest. So with screw ins, you really have to make sure that they are tuned to your liking and good to go once you put them in unless you want to disassemble your whole board every time to access them.
