Red your installation shows you take pride in your work, but as MH suggested, I always put a U-loop in the wires, not so much for water, but so I have length enough to move breakers up and down in the box.
I am frequently appalled at the sloppy wiring being done in new VERY expensive homes, constructed by some of the mega nationwide home builders, along with poor foundation and for that matter, most of the work.
Best I have seen recently was in eastern Ohio where the Amish or Mennonites, were doing a lot of the construction. You could drive through the subdivision and tell from the road, which homes they were working on.

You had the answer right there. There were build by the mega nationwide home builders. They charge cheap you get cheap. There is no building code for sloppy or ugly work. In this business, there are no cheap or short cuts. You will end up paying for it twice.
I am finishing up a small house for a woman in one week. I believe I am the third contractor. She's suing one of them. The one before can't product the detail she is looking for. The owner is a real pain the azz and micro manage everything up to the shoe molding. I am fine with that, but she's willing to pay for it. Most contractors just want to bid low, get it done and get pay. If you continue to do that, its fine, but you will always get that kind of work and pay. That's ok too.
