Agreed indeed.

When I went from 9s to 11s, it pulled my bridge up,
so I had to add more tension springs and adjust the claw,
which changed my string height,
so I had to adjust the saddles,
which didn't set well with the neck bow,
so I had to adjust the truss rod, (and consequently the saddles again),
which changed the pick-up/string spacing,
so I had to adjust the pick-up height,...
...and in the end, the Fat E (as I like to call it) didn't sit in the nut like it should and it broke,
so I had to replace the nut.
which mucked up the intonation because it was carved out a little too high.
so I had to file it down.

So I put 9s back on it, dialed it back in to original factory spec, and quietly tip-toed away.
