Like many shortcuts. I find myself spending more time on the shortcut rather than just doing the job without the headache. Pulling the trim is all of a 45 minute job and once it's pulled you have no worry of losing any hardware.

Much of my time during the job is spent hauling things up and down the stairs to the basement or in and out of the storage shed, or running back downstairs when I realize I need something else,or taking a break from standing out in the sun,or using flashlights or work lamps when it gets dark.

wobble joint can only deflect a few degs, universal can flop almost 90 degs down and any nut will fall out.
