I guess it was a EISA mistake? ;)

Just so I have this absolutely correct, the fingers are all on the end of
the card with the metal bracket, and the contacts are as wide as ISA, but
in a piano key fashion with alternate traces above or below the one next to
it (the fat part of the contact)

finger area is about 7 inches long and 3/4" tall and has 6 notches dividing
segments of the fingers.

What sort of a system used EISA?
