I would bet most "fitters" really have not much experience, and will take every new customer back to the standardized fitting they are trained to provide, on the theory the now in pain customer will come back asking for "treatment:" a fix. Now Mr. New Fitter has an opportunity to experiment on the in-pain customer.
But I fervently hope fitters currently in practice have become better than that.
Humor, apparently, is dead.
