Hook and loop is a total mess waiting to happen. The adhesive backing fails with heat over time, then you've got a loose strap floating in the panel. Zip ties, when you use the right tool and don't over-tighten, give you a permanent, clean hold. That little click from the tension tool is the sound of a job done right, not a future service call.

Some guys say we should always upsize by one gauge for safety." That's how you blow the budget on copper for no real gain. If the prints are correct and the load calc is right, the listed wire size is safe. Why add cost and make terminations harder if the engineering is sound?

Ever had a batch of sauerkraut turn out way too salty? I learned the hard way that you can actually rinse it in a colander with cold water if it's too strong, then just pat it dry. It saves the whole jar. That bacteria fact is wild, it really shows how active that stuff is. I always use a bigger jar than I think I need now, or put a plate under it, to catch any overflow.
