I think you had an error in your link. Is this it?

It almost looks as though someone put a bigger, deeper cup around the outside of an existing mouthpiece. This picture makes it look as though there's just a hole cut out of the bottom of said cup for the shank to poke through.

I think that’s exactly what happened. Zoom in on picture #5...

What has to poke into the can there, I'd think, is the receiver - the exposed shank doesn't look long enough to seat reliably.
