The way people set drawer slides now drives me crazy

Been doing cabinets 20 years now. I see so many guys mounting side slides without any reveal gauge. They just eyeball it. Then the drawer gaps are all over the place. Last week I had to fix a job where every drawer was rubbing on one side. Why ditch the basics just because you got fancy Blum slides?

Blum actually makes a plastic gauge for that exact purpose.

Honestly, my buddy grabbed one of those and said it worked way better than just eyeballing it with a metal one.
