Neutrals in light switch

My thoughts exactly, but you just have to smile and nod until they sign on the line!
They do seem to have a daft little fad each year to pick on.
The year before I got a lecture on how the brown of the three core in a 2way should be used as whichever strapper has the permanent live on it, not in the common.
I tried to explain that the 2way switch he was looking at was wired from a jb with the common of one switch being live and the other common being switch live. He just ignored me and carried on with the lecture!
