Bug Report: parasitic resistance of switch / contact

In contrast to the Time Controlled Switch all other contacts show parasitic resistance when the contact is open.

This inconsequence is confusing, especially because no one would expect such an undocumented resistance.

From the TCS we see that the finite resistance is not mandatory to run the solver but probably a quick “hack” for an other issue ( https://www.circuitlab.com/forums/support/topic/qgs9898s/bug-report-series-switches/ )
