Good point.
A 15amp outlet shouldn't be used on a 20amp circuit(weakest link in the chain)

One thing I like is a cross-over between adjacent rooms.
If one leg goes out there is still a single light/outlet, or it's within extension cord reach.
It does makes labeling a bit more complicated though.
Write the breaker# under the outlet.
