I was expecting someone to clutch dump it in reverse with the steering wheel at full lock.

Yeah, the B20 was turned around a few times in the garage using that same method while I was installing the B20 and related wiring.

Done that more than once...
Hell, once this 80s Mercedes came in on a tow truck, his right lower ball joint had snapped. The shop was on a bit of an incline and guys were debating what to do. "No problem," I said, "jack it up on that side and steer the jack, I'll just drive the car onto a hoist." And I did. I'm sure worker's comp would have LOVED to see that one.

I typically forget to release the emergency brake.
Honda, because it's hard to look baller in your mom's Volvo.
The entire tool selection at Sears or the contents of a Snap-On truck will do you no good if you do not know how to use them.

But at the same time, I would have one in front and one under the rear axle, attempting to traverse a 40 degree sloped driveway. So, I guess that makes me stupider?

Where the hell do these busses keep coming from that you find you need to chunk me under?I know of someone that has done this to a wrecked 3g, and a 1st gen teg. But I won't name names.
Will I Scott, no names will escape my lips because I am sure your engineering mind has justified or denied it in some fashion.
