But if you go around and tell everyone you meet that they're doing it wrong and that lasagna MUST be prepared exactly the way you do it, because it's the one and only right way, then you're a lasagna-nazi :)

What worries me is that a lot of resistors / capacitors are placed at seemingly arbitrary angles. It looks messy and unprofessional. I wouldn't be surprised if this has many electrical problems due to amateurish PCB design.

Luckily it seems modern games (e.g. TF2, Overwatch) make this even more accessible with so called "workshops".

Sure, you can do that for your hobby projects. But "at work" you generally have these decisions made for you. And these decisions have changed over time for the wrong reasons. As an aside: if we say k8s, we should also say j8t.

Isn't 100 / 100 the most likely outcome for a fair coin? Sure it's unlikely that you hit exactly that result, but every single other result is even less likely. What I'm trying to say: if you get 100 / 100, that
