He who would distinguish what is true from what is false must have an
adequate understanding of truth and falsehood.

Not if he wants it done right. Over-torque has it's own problems associated

There's no way that a case bolt is going to tighten up further during a year of
use, so there's no reason at all to test for overtorqueing every year. All he
needs to test for is bolts backing out.
