I can remember as a teenager several of us went through some new houses that were being constructed. They had been framed and the rough plumbing and electrical had been completed. One of my friends began to pull the wiring out of the conduit. I asked him why he was doing that....he had no answer other than the same reason mountain climbers give for climbing a mountain..."because it was there".
I helped him feed it back through the conduit. I would have hated to be the electrician showing up on Monday and having to redo the wiring.
I just left very large storage lot (hundreds of RVs, Boats & other vehicles) there is a sign at the entrance warning boat owners to remove their propellers. Many had been stolen for the scrap value.
