Reminds me of a certain job where I had to manually bend a shit ton of inch and a quarter conduit.

Because there was so much of it, it came in multiple deliveries over a couple of months. Some was made in USA, some in Mexico, some in China.

Despite American steel being the best, what we learned was that it was simply too rigid and would often ripple (bad) or straight up kink (garbage, start over) when bending 90's.

Ultimately, the "shitty" Chinese steel gave the best results due to it's higher flexibility.

There's an analogy to many things in life there.
