It’s truly a 15 minute job start to finish.

know lugs are larger on 80 breaker. They handle more current. Keystone is getting away with lighter wiring less copper more profit. Lighter gage copper has smaller lugs

Not a problem aeince then.
yes CAMPING WORLD is worse than useless. I did breakers this past week and ran a complete cycle up and down on batteries with no hiccups at all.

Have never seen a terminal like that. Great way to connect multiple wires.
