According to CJT :

Yes, others have corrected me on that. But has a job that was otherwise
compliant ever failed inspection because not sufficiently neat?

Define neat in this context ;-)

Most workmanship issues boil down to neatness in one way or another.

Clearly there are times where a wiring job is electrically correct,
but the inspector will ask for changes because of things like excessive
and unnecessary J boxes, poor routing, rat-nesting etc.

Inspectors consider neat jobs a sign that the wiring is done right,
and you'll probably have less trouble passing.
