We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Please show what geometry was scoped to in the 100 mm displacement.  If you scoped an end face of the slides, that creates a support that is not present in the simulation with the slides positioned at 100 mm without any displacement support, so I would expect to see a significant difference in results.  The repositioning method is closer to the correct boundary conditions for this problem.
