Seeing the actual timeline changes things, no doubt. The 2018 apology plus the charity work is a lot more than most folks get. The pile-on usually just makes people dig in, not learn. Sometimes the full story really does show a different person than the tweet.

Double-check that math though. 14 months of straight work is closer to 420 days, and if you're doing 25 rivets a day, that's just over 10,500, so ten grand is actually a slow week or two. Still impressive, just not the exact number you think it is. But yeah, nobody on that crew gets it, and that's their loss.

Sure, tension rods work fine if you install them right, but studs are always the stronger bet.
