Just realized the electrician moved my framing to run wires
Some carpenters say to let it slide to keep things moving, but others think it hurts our work and we should speak up. Where do you stand?

You know what nobody talks about? How this messes with future work. Say you want to add a window later, but the framing's all cut up from wires. Or when the next owner tries to hang a heavy TV and the stud finder fails because of all the notches. It's not just about keeping the job moving today, it's about avoiding big problems for years. I've seen homes where shortcuts like that meant whole walls had to be fixed just to run new lines. Speaking up might slow things now, but it saves a lot of trouble later.

Typical. Wires come first, framing second.

Ever run into a specific problem because of that order? What's the biggest headache it causes?
