The rattle is not the shifter directly but the shift knob and the shifter.
With less rubber on the shifter more vibration is carried through to the shift knob, and unless the shift knob is perfectly 100% on with no gaps it will rattle. I believe this is also one reason Nissan basically dipped the OEM shift knob in lock tight because it sealed the shift knob and shifter together to reduce any noise/rattle.
