I can tell you all the big models I've built have mistakes and inconsistancies between drawing on them, which drives me insane.

I've never heard that before, but I know they have mistakes.
I have heard that they deliberately didn't go into full details to make kids think a bit more, use imagination and that.
I know I use my imagination when builiding them. I imagine lots of bad words, that I can't say aloud.
