So says HGTV

Who?  Oh that reality TV channel that shows completely unrealistic home remodels or people half assing stuff and doing it wrong.

As a young and conscientious electrician, while trimming out a house, I carefully aligned all the cover plate screws. ( I think I made them horizontal )

My boss walked through the house, turned to me and asked, 'ya line all the screws up like that on purpose?' I proudly replied 'yep'. He looked me in the eye, and snarled ' do that again and I'll fire you' 

Seems that as a young electrician he had trimmed house, aligning all the screws, shortly after he left all the plastic cover plates had cracked. A call back to replace all the cover plates didn't amuse his boss.
