That moment I realized I'd been masking tape backwards for 8 years

So about 2 years ago I was painting a 2017 Ford Focus in the shop and my coworker Jim walks over and says 'hey you know the tape rips cleaner if you peel it from the bottom instead of the top.' I thought he was messing with me but he showed me and my mind was blown. I had been peeling 3M tape from the top roll for like 8 years and always fighting with jagged edges. Has anyone else had a dumb little trick like that hit you way later than it should have?
