Is the contact spacing on 1/4" TS jacks consistent enough that one can
say with absolute certainty that any TRS plug inserted into any TS
jack will connect the Tip & the Sleeve but leave the Ring floating?
I've never seen any connector that didn't do this.
or is there enough variation from unit to unit (or manufacturer to
manufacturer) that that assumption could get someone in trouble?
Not as far as I've seen. It's probably because most TS jacks are just
"shortloaded" TRS jacks. In other words, it's the same jack minus the
ring contact, so there would obviously be no overlap.
