I use my phone for internet at home and can't open PDF's. The digi-key website is also not as friendly with phone use as some of the others, that's why I went elsewhere that was easier to navigate on my phone after I had the part number I needed.
The spade terminals are handy for ground terminals. I don't always use them, I prefer the ring terminals but sometimes it's nice to have a spade that doesn't require the complete removal of the machine screw or fastener holding it in place.
The terminals are manufactured in a roll and it is part of the manufacturing process. The original ones in the GMC have the same flat edge where it was cut and polished/sanded down. These will obviously need to be cut and cleaned up, but I don't consider that modifying them.
