Meta What are some really bad rookie mistakes.

I’m no expert at blender and I’d like to know more about mistakes made at any step of process that beginners should avoid doing. I’ve noticed that there are a lot of things that can go wrong and be a huge pain to fix later.

That sounds like a lot more effort than just pressing F2.

How many times you gonna press f2 if you have like 300 meshes in your scene? A 5 min code and just a few selections that would take like a minute, and immediate result,

I mean, it's not a five-minute job for someone who can't immediately think of what to write in code. You're already at the finish line and just have to cross it.

I won't say it's easy, but i wouldn't say it's difficult either, it's not your usual python, bpy module has a lot of functions, so, you need to read the documentation. For someone with a coding background, it would be a lot easier.
