As I understand it the flat mount fork has no threads - the bolts are fed through from the front and screw in to threads on a mounting plate, on which the caliper is then bolted.
Or maybe not, I dunno, at least it looks like the caliper is bolted to something rather than directly to the fork.
It's a bit of a mess but then it's better than PM in the context of the not fucking up your fork discussion.
