Plumbing is way, way easier than drywall (in fact I would go so far as to call the supply side of it “easy,” including soldering copper pipes); it’s just that the penalty for failure is so much higher.

I partly agree and partly don’t.

Plumbing as a field is way broader than installing drywall, and there’s a ton to learn. No single plumbing task is really harder than hanging drywall (except maybe welding), but doing all the drywall in an entire building is a hell of a lot easier than doing all the plumbing for it.

I’m only talking about DIY plumbing a single-family house, and I only said the supply side was easier. The drain side is more complicated to understand, with the slopes and venting and whatnot.

There’s also the fact that the tool is 90 degrees but corners rarely are.

that’s what changing the angle compensates for

How well is it gonna work if the corner isn’t a precise 90 degree angle? I didn’t even realize how imprecise corners were until I got a corner desk and it didn’t sit flush in any corner of my house.
