If someone were to use that Belton socket for the G*S*G, the ears on the socket won't line up with the holes in the circuit board. In all likelihood, you'd just ignore them and they wouldn't be used.
I think the risk is that the distance between the top of the socket's mounting plate and the bottom of the flange on the pins would be too large, and you wouldn't be able to install the board correctly. At the very least, you'd need to make sure your standoffs were long enough. I can't get enough info off the Belton datasheet to say how long they would need to be...
"It's a different experience; the noise occlusion, crisp, clear sound, and defined powerful bass. Strong bass does not corrupt the higher frequencies, giving a very different overall feel of the sound, one that is, in my opinion, quite unique."
