I was always under the impression that the semi girling plunger unit was designed to float slightly to allow the shoes to self-centralise in the drum. The fact that the fastener used was a castellated nut and split pin combined with the copper flat washers I thought supported that theory.Not sure it would assist with a self-servo effect though.
Having checked a backplate and plunger I find that there is no room for movement between the backing plate and the plunger unit so my original impression is incorrect.
