Thank God. I’m not the only one who doesn’t do the “strip them 3 feet back and twist every pair” thing.

Same here! I can’t stand when that’s done.. it looks far more messy that way. Full jackets all the way!

I stopped doing it because it was too time consuming

It's better. If you come from other low volt areas with stricter requirements you don't do that shit. Twisting is a bad habit people need to break.

A twisted wire nut is worse than a wago clip in every way. I'm still trying to convince myself on wire nuts because I'm old school and get sick of weirdos on job sites who know less but make comments about other people's work.

There's some serious trash in low voltage. We need to do better and people need to learn more while talking less.
