WBT, there are lazy, and cheap people out there. I don't mind spending a half hour properly fixing my brake lines if it means I don't have to worry if an asshat on a cellphone misses their turn and decides to lock up the brakes in front of me, and all of a sudden my foot goes to the floor.
When Jesus comes back, I'll make sure he asks people if it's okay to use compression fittings on brake lines, it'll make his job a lot easier for who to save and who to leave here.
