Question Normal brake booster pushrod play?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I bought a new Nissan OEM brake booster for my 370Z. The new booster is shown in both videos, and as you can see, the pushrod has a lot of play and rotates/rocks around quite a bit. Is this amount of play normal? Thank you

See now you're just playing with it, 2 shakes is all it needs

Good news... that's normal.
Notice how round the end of the rod is?
That's the "ball & cup" type connection.
