Honestly, our shop in Dayton pushed those same tablet systems on us about two years back. The thing kept telling me to replace a perfectly good logic board in a hospital service elevator. I spent an hour with the wiring schematic and found a single pinched wire in the cab harness. The software had zero checks for physical damage. It just reads codes, it doesn't think. I keep the tablet in my truck for the paperwork, but my real tools are still in my bag.

That "deliberate data collection" idea at the airport is a really unsettling thought.

My last one ended up being about office snacks instead of quarterly reports lol

You just stopped trusting your memory for torque settings? How did you ever get by before without stripping every bolt?
