I hesitate to get into this, but I gotta say two things. First, I'm a retired building inspector, and I've inspected buildings done by both Amish and Mennonites. They all built very carefully and diligently, and paid attention to all the Code items that came up. Made a few mistakes, but they quickly corrected anything I asked them to. I was very impressed by all of them, project after project, commercial buildings, roofing, additions, etc..

Short story, these Codes are just small things that make a big difference.
