A basic remix to move the connector hole up a bit, from a remix which adds vent holes, this being a remix of a remix that removed screw holes from the original design.
*catches his breath*
This entry in the remix chain should reduce the misalignment seen in most makes of versions of this model.
Note: The adjusted offset appears to be subject to manufacturing variance, the original designer's connector was higher than usual, mine seems about average but some makes have it placed lower still.

I used the 0,2mm SPEED profile, printed along the Y-axis, increased perimeters to 4, disabled Ensure Vertical Shell Thickness to reduce rapid back and forth movements and reduced top shell count for the heck of it.
These settings are included in the download as they are added the same way as the mesh modifications.
Optionally you can use double-sided tape to reduce stress on the connector and potential rattling.

As FreeCAD was throwing errors while attempting to modify the mesh, the final edit has been made in PrusaSlicer, so beware when importing in other slicers or changing the offset.
I had to add some retroactive precision thanks to making a mistake with this, the uploaded files have been corrected.
