No but on interior walls that will be 'rocked both sides, it's putting your wires within an inch of getting literally screwed.
How many times have you been successful doing that ? The brain surgeon Roto-Zip Rebels often cut my wires to ribbons and I have to make the repairs. I've had one job where they missed cutting openings on an entire wall. I had to find the outlets with a tone generator and amplifier and then make the cuts. Usually the GC just wants to get the job done and doesn't want to hear about back charges. If you back charge the GC for petty amounts of money you won't get the next job. Just my opinion.I think that is the sheetrockers' problem, not yours. You get to back charge if they don't know how to aim for the center of the stud.

I pretty much only use 22.5 boxes:
Interesting. I have been doing this for 30+ years and that has never been an issue.No but on interior walls that will be 'rocked both sides, it's putting your wires within an inch of getting literally screwed.

It has happened to me once that they rotoziped the wires. Then again I will not change the size of the box based on sheetrockrrs ability.
If I don't backcharge on that job, i will make it up (double) on the next one.
I've found commercial installs with Boxes,Plaster rings and stranded wire, the wire usually migrates towards the front of the box regardless.
Do you all that do a lot of that use any type of protector to keep the rotozip from getting into them or just cross your fingers ?

Is there anything wrong with using the larger plastic box on a 2x4? The box almost takes up the entire 2x4 width.
I guess 1900 boxes would have solved any issues
