Yikes
The old saying that "Opinions are like belly buttons" and i've got one too.
Of course, if you make the steering shaft big enough and the hole through it small enough there is very little to worry about.
I'll leave it to the people that design the kart to decide if it's appropriate to do it this way and accept the liability associated with it.
I respect everyone's opinion and isn't that what Gary asked for?
Additionally, i would think that if you wanted to eliminate any play when you lock the steering wheel a bolt through the shaft with a nut on the opposite side would do the best job of locking everything tight, with no play.
