As she explained in considerable detail: So each one [professional engineer] is a different person, and they have their own personal preferences of, “This should be engineered this way, I would like you to do it this way.” It’s their license, so we do it their way. But if you were to talk to the other professional engineer, just in the other office, they might have a different opinion on it. So, it’s like, “Which one’s the right one?” Knowing what’s best is hard, especially in an area that can have so many variables. Because
