If they won't go through the trouble/time/expense of cutting the tabs

Isn't that what I just got through expounding on????

My bad. I took your post to mean that the pre-made starter shingles
would be an easier/cheaper alternative to cutting the tabs off, which
I guess we both agree is not the case.

Well, I misread your misread...

I think the "for-purpose" product is/would be simpler/cheaper; simply
that even the "pros" don't bother as much out of ignorance as anything.

Hence, since they don't order the product they should (which would be
delivered to jobsite by the supplier just as the regulars would so
there's nothing else for the roofer himself to do) the installers, being
just cheap hired labor take the easy way out. In most cases, they
probably really don't know any better 'cuz they've never had any real
training, simply just started watching somebody else who didn't know any
better either.
