I still stick with the engineers.
Techs have opinions and usually not accountable, engineers are accountable.
I can hear a tech saying your syncro is gone because you mashed gears.
Well the gears will mash when the syncro does not bring the new gear up to the same speed as the driver gear. This causes damage to the syncro cogs.
