should the workmanship simply be substandard
Presumably a licensed contractor (or County/State employee) would never do shoddy work ... yet there are plenty of examples, like the time "they" had to re-pave highway 11 because "someone" didn't put down a thick enough layer of asphalt.
The recurring theme ("broken record") is that we're all somehow required to comply with -- and pay for -- regulations that don't directly benefit the reality of our common situation. This isn't Oahu, but our "private" subdivisions with "substandard" infrastructure are held to that same standard.
