Do you regularly request or advise your colleagues to defrag their Mechs after each drop or a series of drops?

No since the automatic defragging should take care of that for them

Does PGI weigh all keyboards before use, logging the details and observing equivalent weights with any failures with these peripherals to see what the average accumulation of muffin crumbs and nail clippings actually constitutes the likely failure of said device?

And if the answer to the above is Yes, how often do you weigh keyboards regularly to see if replacements are predictably then needed?

Quick, send a global email to everyone in the company for a "Trial of Balls action" to see if anyone responds to find out?

Wow, table fussball certainly seems to have changed since I last played. ;)
