I'm not arguing....
But I've seen just about as many copper lines that didn't get soldered right as I have PVC fittings that didn't get glued right. Seen copper come apart, seen PVC come apart. One time, I saw a 90° copper elbow blow the outside corner, because the plumber didn't deburr the pipe after cutting. It was on a hot water circulation line, and the rolled edge caused cavitation to orrur in the elbow, eroding it out. That was a new one for me....
I've also seen pex fittings blow off, iron and galvanized rot out..... so, they all have issues one way or another, lol.
