I have a theory that there isn't enough copper on the Maze 4 to handle the higher load he is using especially being there is no center inlet. The Maze 4 has much more copper and possible a thicker base as does the Black Edge.
Actually, 1/4" is appropriate, for this design, IMO.

I think that if anything, you could get some business out of modding these: add a center inlet, try to jet that inlet a bit on either side of the center fin, and that should yield a substantial improvement. You might even be able to shave a mm or two, off of the baseplate. Alternatively, you could drill a cup, ~1 or 2 mm deep, >5mm wide on either side of those fins, which would be a heck of a lot easier to do.
