I wonder if we could reduce the slop by adjusting the "C-axis drawtube collimation" screws on the Moonlite... if we do that evenly such that it's still properly collimated, but tighter, it might reduce the slop...

I reckon it is worth contacting Ron about this. I suspect he is not really aware of the problem existing. If I could find a cheaper solution to doing this I would be happy. Buying adapters for the Atlas is not cheap, plus I'll need something to sort collimation on the scope.
