Pulled a power stretcher on a 12 year old berber instead of knee kicking it, and I'm glad I did

Am I the only one who picks power stretcher over knee kicker for a 12x15 Berber in a hot attic, and regrets it every time?

Walked into a hotel in Dallas being built and saw the pad laid before the walls went up, right or wrong?
