This is so true, I have seen it several times, my fix in this case is to JB weld the holes closed and re-drill them.
I never go by the manual specs when it comes to float level for trail riding because the bike is all over the place hopping logs etc and with a 2 stroke it's more important to conserve on fuel than say MX.
I usually go a few mils past the factory specs and test ride and so on until it stops pissing...then I do some WOT runs and make sure it doesn't starve for fuel.
It took me a couple of trys to get my CR 250 to stop pissing and it's way past the factory specs.
