@paco I've done my fair share of plumbing and I can say it's genuinely harder to use that many 45 and 22.5 degree fittings than to just make everything nice 90 degree angles.

@paco as if inexperienced people cobbling together bullshit construction worthy of a laugh didn't exist before chatgpt
@thief_of_fire of course they did. It’s just that nobody gave THOSE folks billions of dollars swearing that it was the wave of the future that it would save us all. We just posted it on the internet for laughs.

I have to wonder what the idea was here... Is this a plumbing equivalent to equal-length runners for exhaust manifolds?

@paco
Artful installation in a Kyrgyz cafe, but real installations often looked similar.

@paco Rebuilding this kind of bushleague setup made me money year in year out for awhile back in the 20-teens. You can have it done cheap, you can have it done quick, and you can have it done well. But you never get all three.
What throws me is the VFD pump sitting inside that mess

Alas, I can say from experience that all these twisty pipes are becoming brittle, because PVC does not like UV light. Eventually when you try to work on them to clean up this mess, they will split in places you thought you were going to keep.
When we bought our house we inherited an (illegal) backyard well plumbed a bit nicer than this. The previous owner was a wonderful cabinet maker (which we appreciate every day), but a horrible electrician (which we regret occasionally), and unwise plumber (which we also regret occasionally).
Our first clue was the day we moved in. He was finishing up cleaning sawdust out of his "six car garage" (actually, his big cabinetry workspace not allowed under zoning laws), and said "Stay away from that outlet over there. It blew up this morning, and I'm not sure how to turn it off."
