Reminds me of a friend mine. When we were teens we’d be reformatting our machines every other month it seemed like. The one time he created the partition and ended up with something like 49.9GB instead of an even 50GB. He proceeded to redo the entire install and partitioning while I stood by dumbfounded that he’d waste all that time.

I've done this myself! :/
It feels like the relief of getting it "right" outweighs the time wasted, at least at the time. But it's kind of crazy when you think about it!
