Free play in bolt

When putting a bolt into the female thread,how come you can move it left to right ever so slightly surely that will cause the bolt to go in crooked if it down a few threads/halfway.

If there were absolutely no slack, you wouldn't be able to get it in, would you?

I wonder if this is the same bolt he was on about in all his posts to date.
