Weird ignition switch experience (for future searchers)

I replaced my ignition switch a couple months back and bought a spare at the same time due to recs from the board.

I recently developed a couple of weird electrical problems (key wouldnt turn starter on first turn but would on second. the interior lights would stay on until the door was opened and closed a second time and the radio stayed on for longer than the few seconds it normally did.

since I had a spare switch I thought I'd throw it in. Much easier the second time but the new switch wouldnt turn right away and then when it did break free wouldnt start the car. Old switch went back in and now sh*t works again.

Weird.
