You can learn a lot by watching vets. Sometimes you learn what not to do (and why). It's a form of "do as I say, not as I do." Sometimes it's because these "vets" are working JH games for a reason (although that depends on the area and the specific person -- there are lots of exceptions).
And, I'd venture to guess that in 10 years or so, someone will be (or could be) writing a similar post after having observed one of your games. We all have bad habits.
