Edge Saddles Are All The Same, Right?

They are all identical and the bridge radius is determined by the steps on the baseplate, right? (I know Floyd Rose's are the opposite, where the baseplate is flat and there are 3 different saddle styles, height wise)

Because I took my Edge apart and mixed up the saddles:(

You can usually see grooves in the fulcrum area that indicate what size string was in there previously, or at least whether or not it was wound. What you don't want to do is swap the low E for the high E for example, because the sideways grooves left by the wound strings can be abrasive to a plain string.

Same goes for the Schallers/OFRs because you can still mix up 1/6, 2/5 and 3/4.
