How many electricians do you see using a torque wrench?

It's code to do so as of NEC 2017.

Only if the outlet provides torque specs with its instructions. If there's no specification, torquing isn't required. Stupid 'workaround', but most outlets likely do not have torque requirements.

Correct, though when I put the 240 in my garage, both the outlet and breaker had torque specs.
