I don't see a specification for preload in my FAG book, but that does not mean they are loose, either
I think the idea of the DRAC is a space saving design that is simple to mount (no adjustment nuts needed) and will carry thrust in either direction. However, it may not be the best choice in a precision application, like an accurate spindle or a ballscrew thrust application, where you need to be able to tweak the axial movement to zero.
First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.
