ok, perhaps it may already help if you make them carefully only little bit 
bigger.

Your system manual gives a very good explanation that one needs to pay 
much caution on this connector when removing the board out of the case. 
But I'm talking about the use case of simply plugging in an external 
antenna. When doing this reasonably carefully, I would expect the contacts 
of the connector to survive, even when doing this more than once...   ;-)
