A customer told me my seams were too tight and I fought them on it for an hour

About 3 months ago I was doing this big living room in a house near Columbus and the homeowner kept saying my seams were too tight. I was like nah that's how you get them to lay flat and not show. But she was the client so I loosened them up a little on the next room and honestly they looked way better and laid down smoother. Has anyone else had a client point out something you thought was standard practice that turned out to actually be a good tip?

Read a pro saying tight seams cause buckling later.

Guess the "pro" never tried to actually sit on a drum that tight before. Sounds like someone is overthinking things again. I have seen plenty of tight seams hold up just fine for years. Maybe their definition of "later" is like 30 years from now. Honestly, half these "pro tips" feel like someone trying to sound smart on YouTube. People have been building drums a certain way forever, and they work.
