  ok, it _is_ actually possible to fit Micro Type D HDMI which is
absolutely tiny, it's about the same size as USB-OTG, USB-OTG itself,
a Micro-SD and a 2.5mm headphone jack all into the 55 mm width with
room to spare.

 there is a piece of plastic that contains all these connectors, into
which a single small switch can be embedded as well.

 redoing metal case-work is neither desirable nor necessary.  it would
delay product release by up to 8 to 10 weeks and add to the NREs
(Non-Recoverable Expenses i.e. development costs).
