I hope you're much better at being polite and working with the AHJ in person.
Because the way you vent on this board makes me think that you're probably causing the AHJ personnel to view you very negatively.
And human nature being what it is, if you're annoyed by someone you're probably less likely to give them the benefit of the doubt.
The code does have areas where things can be interpretted in multiple ways, so the inspector/plan reviewer can decide to take a more strict view of things. And that will cause you more delay in getting things done.
In short - Try being more pleasant - remember the old adage "You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar"
