It's a tight twist, as is the Panasonic 20mm lens I've had for a while. It's been discussed before, and there's been no reports of issues arising from it.

Have it weared in over time and become loosened? thanks.

It may have to some degree (I'm not sure it's that, or I'm just used to it). The tight fit lenses are still a tighter fit than all the others (after 2-3 years). Some adapters and lenses that are looser have rotational play (where the tight ones don't). I only think about it when it's raised in discussions like this one. These differences in fit tolerances are of little significance and concern.
