So I planned on replacing the brake lines on my truck today since they were looking pretty corroded. My dad came over and we got started, tore off the old lines and went to advanced to get new ones. Come back start installing the new ones, get to the last one, a stupid 1 foot long piece on the left rear is not threading into the 4 way junction it comes from. Take a close look at it, threads look fine...hmm. find the part that came out, it goes in just fine, we look at the 2 the one end is bigger. Why oh why do you design something where one fitting in the whole damn system is bigger than the rest? So tomorrow I'll go get a new fitting for that one end of that one line.
I'm an engineer but I can't come up with a good reason why one would design something this way. Makes no sense to me. Maybe someone here can enlighten me, but stupid designs like this seem all too common whenever I work on cars.

Because the people who design cars don't need to design them well for them to sell. So, they just crank out crap because they can.
Not to mention it is an oppressive industry that smothers all joy. Do you think the engineers have any freedom to design what they want? No, they get told what to do, day after day, and suprise; they don't care about the products they make.
