I took a self-rescue course and a list at the end of their handout had such good engineering tips that I shared it with my eng team. Lots to be learned about engineering from climbing/mountaineering. The list was something like the following:

A few pro-tips:

- Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

- Simplicity/speed/efficiency is good.

- Strong is good. Redundancy is good/better.

- Equalization and Extension are a trade off.

- Not everything is a nail so NOT every tool is a hammer.

- Tools that have multiple uses are good.
