I find that hard to believe unless it's the small square.



The big square fits in aluminum and there's no possible way for the aluminum to wear on the pin, it's too soft. The smaller square sits in a forged steel steering lever and can wear a bit. The steering lever and swivel pin area much less money than a gimbal ring, but the labor to replace them is the same as a gimbal ring.
