Not to forget, an 8-outlet power strip costs about 10 euros. Electricians usually charge around 60 euros per outlet. Honestly? That’s exactly why I love my power strips—they offer unbeatable value for the price!And you still have cables anyway with more outlets (the ones on the devices). I appreciate both options but think your argument is very valid and will try to find a middle ground for our house.P

The Bild newspaper should actually be sold at McDonald's, since supposedly no one goes there either. Even people who feel that no one cares about their dignity want confirmation that they are not alone. It is said that from around a thousand employees onward, a company starts to manage itself – this probably also applies to market segments once they reach a certain size, i.e., relevance: in this sense, some broadcasters are almost like the intranet of the left-behind community :-( In my view, many people boost their self-worth by putting others down, which certain media outlets make much easier.
How about sharing a picture again?
Here you can clearly see how at least two parties missed something during the planning phase.
The draftsman/"drawing assistant" and the homeowner. The basement window and kitchen window are offset by 5cm (2 inches). It’s a bit annoying...
We can’t move or enlarge the top one because of the symmetry. I’m definitely not going to ask the people with the big saw to make the hole bigger down below. So, my first agenda item (besides closing the right window) of "things we would do differently next time."

We probably added around 30 extra.
Mainly to ensure that wherever you really need one, there is a socket, so you never have to run cables across half the house. Even in places where we knew devices would be, we often installed a few more.
However, we still can’t avoid using multi-outlet adapters. Simply because some device cables are not long enough. If they are placed on or inside furniture, you have to extend the cable somehow. Whether you see the cable of the power strip or the device cables doesn’t make much difference.
One thing I would always pay extra for: the in-wall conduit for the TV on the wall. It looks SO MUCH better when no cables are hanging down.
