So, the question is, does the "respect of the tie" trump the "look at the dweeb who thinks this is a good place to wear a tie."

You do not get a second chance to not look like a out of place dweeb.

One can certainly dress well w/o a tie. Mfg/egr environments generally aren't fashoin centers, if ya know what I mean.

In general, it's good if you can dress just a bit nicer than those you will be interviewing with. The goal is to make a comfortable (good fit) impression. YMMV
