That's my take on this as well.
I get pretty angry when I'm being told to "not worry" about something. Especially when I KNOW that later on it's going to wind up being an issue.

I need some opinions here. I seem to be coming across a lot of people in my
group that are of the opinion that "Oh, we never show THAT, we let the
contractor do what he wants with that."
I can see that being the case on some stuff, but I am constantly getting
this comment seemingly about EVERYTHING.
"Oh, we never show unions."
"Oh, we never show Victaulic fittings, just show them as flanged."
"Anything 6" and under we show single-line and note it to be diagrammatic. "
It really urks me, because there's a LOT of these "details" that are just as
easy to show as it is to NOT show them.
I'm just afraid into getting into bad habits.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
