inWatched my sister buy coffee every morning for 8 months, then she asked me why she's broke
Small stuff being invisible is a whole pattern, not just coffee. People will drive 20 minutes to save $5 on a TV but never add up the $4 energy drinks or the $12 in app fees they pay every week. My buddy swore his budget was tight and then found $90 a month going to vending machines at work. Getting someone to track it works better if you don't make it a lecture. Ask them to just write it down for two weeks, no judgment, then let the numbers do the talking.

inA stuck caliper bolt ate 5 hours of my Saturday and I still lost
Man, that lower bolt on those trucks is a known headache. Did you try heat on the bracket ear itself instead of the bolt head? I've had better luck getting the whole knuckle ear glowing a bit and then hitting it with candle wax or ATF mixed with acetone while it's still hot. Also curious if yours was rusted solid or if somebody before you put red Loctite on it, because those two need totally different plans.

inFound a 1973 Schwinn service manual and it says to repack hubs every 2,000 miles
Repack my own stuff, sure. Customer bikes get sealed hubs or they get told to ride it till it dies.
