Wacky Weds: Can Fiberglass ever be…

I sense a Monday musing coming out soon but in the meantime, I have to ask…

If you look on the other side of this wall, it is an honest to god “Grade 1” install, but as you can see by this picture this would be considered “Grade 3“ – while some might argue “Grade 2” that would be for another article. Granted this was only for sound purposes, but I see similar issues almost every time we have to pull sheathing off a wall. So I got to ask, can we truly give any fiberglass installation a Grade of 1 or should it be a Grade 2 or 3 no matter how well it is done?
