It is NEVER the way it COULD be done
Personal opinion only, not pickin’ on anyone or saying there is no chance of doing it absolutely the perfect way the first time…
My experience in life, and construction in particular (I have 50 years plus in the latter) is that it is NEVER just the way it COULD be done to have the best possible outcome. That is the reason in the construction industry there are plans called “As Built” that superscede any Architectural or Structural design plans. AND, biggest thing…that doesn’t mean it will please everybody, for what ever reason, including being to exact code….to being practically the greatest…. the safest and just plain difference of likes and dislikes.
I’ve always felt that if one doesn’t learn something new today, they are not making much progress. SO…in our conversion, we “live with it” a while, and if we find it is not what it should be, we change it, and if it is, we lock it in.
As Fast Fred says…..do it your way. But be safe!!!
