Talking with a retiree at the local shop changed how I look at setups
I was chatting with this old timer named Frank who ran a Haas for 30 years, and he said 'you're wasting time chasing perfect speeds when your tool holder is the real bottleneck.' He showed me how his run times dropped 15% just by switching to better holders. Has anyone else had a random conversation like that completely shift your approach?

That old timer Frank knew his stuff. Good tool holders can stiffen up the whole setup way more than people give them credit for, and it cuts down on vibration that kills your surface finish too.
