Also the hold open should display this color (not broken of course)

Thor, the more apropos term for "broken" would be "bifurcated". Yep, that part was bifurcated. Another approach would be to say, "The hold open experienced profound usage bifuraction".

Looks to me like it broke.

A good "fitty-cent" word, Eugene, but I think "bisected" is better. The "furcation" part means forked, but not necessarily separated. I remember this from Dead Ringers, the movie in which Jeremy Irons played twin brothers who were freaky/insane OB/GYN physicians. They were discussing a patient whose uterus had three cervixes--a "tri-furcate."

Personally, I like "busticated"!

Dave, that term works for me. That hold open part should offically be adjudicated to be busticated ...and feckled.
