On another trip, this same idiot was recommending those Shark Bite

that city water pressure is about 2 PSI......

Don't throw out the baby with the bath water - if the guy's an idjit,
that doesn't mean everything they mention is crap.

It wasn't clear from your post - have you ever tried a Sharkbite
fitting?

The city of ancient Rome? :-)

Did you ever see the height of some of those aqueducts? I wonder if
they were able to develop a pressurized water distribution system.
100' high aqueduct would provide over 40 psi. I wonder if the Romans
had pressure washers...?
