PSA: a 20 year master tech told me to stop using impact guns on lug nuts, and I basically ignored him for 8 months

It's the same thing with so many warnings people hand down. A guy with decades of experience tells you something, you nod along, and then you go right back to doing what's easy because nothing has blown up yet. That gap between "nothing went wrong" and "this is actually fine" is where most of us live. Four months later the lugs are stretched or the studs are chewed up and suddenly the old guy looks like a genius. The hard part is that impact guns save you real time every single day, so the cost of quitting feels instant while the cost of not quitting stays hidden. Which is why pretty much everybody has to learn this one the expensive way.
