Any other examples?

That reminds me of the time I was on a roll with one of the maps I made then lost everything when Hammer crashed. You know you've done too much mapping if you forget to save.

I've seen many misaligned floor and ceiling tiles in reality, for which I would have been yelled at if I had made those in Hammer.

That is a dream I bet tons of mappers (including myself) would like to live in. But that's a dream unfortunately, not a reality.

If you're talking about a recent instance of such a dream, then that's really creepy considering that I had one on the night of Sunday the 27th.

I've done all of these, especially the seeing misaligned textures and looking at everything in turns of prop_static, brushes, etc.
