Walmart torques my nuts at least 25 ft lbs higher than spec. Discout

I wonder why? Do they think over torquing is better/safer?
Given that they're going to do it wrong, I'd rather have them over
torque than under torque. It's safer to lose a bolt than the whole
wheel.
What if they warp the brake rotors?
That gets expensive.
