Well, if NCJ counts as an ARRL publication, then they did compare the K3 knob and button spacing with those of the FT-1000MP in that forum. I wrote "Rotary controls are slightly larger but slightly closer than on the MP. K3 pushbutton spacing is slightly wider." Of course, that's not nearly as detailed as W8ZR's comprehensive report nor as strident as yours but it does reach the same conclusion and was published under an ARRL masthead.
