That afternoon my aunt and I fixed her bike's loud creak

My aunt's bike had a loud creak that wouldn't stop, and she was ready to quit riding. I tightened the crank arms in a star pattern, and the noise went away. What torque patterns do you use for crank arms?

Cross-tighten in a star pattern... it's foolproof.

Seriously, is that actually needed for regular stuff? Seems a bit extra.
