Of course, these comments don't necessarily apply for a production environment where a little extra meat on the tubes is a good thing, particularly if welding.

okay - sorry.
however, these days, all tubesets are tig specific.
howzat? well, while many/most are short butt types
and some are that wacky air hardening stuff, you'll
find that manufacturers like no longer adhere to the
industry o.d. specs once did. why? because few/if any
use lugs. ergo, o.d. is not the be all/end all that it
once was.
