The Examiner has no Clothes!

The examiners in my old chapter would probably rather pierce their eardrums 
than show the rebuilding workmanship or behavior this person has.  I'm 
posting this anonymously to protect his/her identity.  I'm planning to send 
him/her a copy of the responses.  I'm also interested to know whether you 
think I'm out of line, here.

Questions:

1)   How many turns should there be in a tuning pin coil in the tenor section 
of 
an S&S "B?"
2)   Should the tail of a string pass over one duplex scale bar, or between 
two?
3)   Should a single string hitchpin loop contact/cross a duplex bar?
4)   Should the wires be parallel as they leave the hitchpin?
5)   Should stringing braid be installed in an S&S "B?"
6)   Should a reshaped hammer resemble a(n):
     a) egg shape
     b) rounded diamond shape
     c) rounded hatchet shape
7)   Should new damper felts (regulated) effectively dampen?
8)   If you were rebuilding an S&S "B" and a pedal was wobbly, would you pop 
out the pedal assembly and tighten the screws while you were at it?
9)   If you were a PTG examiner, would you use your rank to try and 
intimidate someone who disagreed with one aspect of your work?
10)  Rebuilders:  Does a technician have to chose to do bellywork in order 
for you to consider his/her opinion?

Actually, only rebuilders need respond, as he/she made clear that those were 
the only people he/she would respect in any way.

PS These aren't all the problems I encountered.
