The plcc socket is too wide to fit inside the molex socket without pushing the molex pins away and breaking contact with the pcb edge, even after sanding it down to where it's ready to break apart at the corners just from inserting a chip. The plcc socket is also tricky to solder. It really needs a reflow oven. Even a hot air station doesn't work very well because the air just melts the plastic while the pins are still not hot enough.
