Any question answered...

Right. Better practice on some shitty old frames.

Why do we put butter/spread in sandwiches?

Because some salty fat slime is just what a soft, flacid brit sandwich really, really needs.

I understood the reason to be that it stops the bread from going soggy from the filling.

Cause butter tastes good!

All the above, plus it keeps me from getting the hiccups.
Yep

Brazing is more fun.
I’ve only done it a few times but it was cool watching the brass flow around the joint.

It goes deeper. I can’t even remember what I was looking for* when I stumbled across this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toast_sandwich

*usually something about Nazi Gold

Rumour is there is a train load of unbuttered sandwiches buried in a Polish mountain

Are thru axles typically proprietary for particular bikes? I've bought thru axle (DT Swiss) to replace a front one on my Trek and it didn't seem to naturally fit. Not clear on whether it should naturally work. Believe the sizing are compatible (15 mm black length: 100mm) but is there something else I'm missing?

Even Waitrose don't sell yak butter.

There are different lengths to account for "dropout" thickness.

Also works well in coffee (never tried the yak-variant) . On a related note, used to be that people in Sweden would add a bit of salt to their coffee, takes a bit of the bitterness out of an pot brewed earlier in the day/week .

Different thread pitch? What forks?

Overall length/thread length, thread pitch (1mm or 1.5mm

Many things, but we do like coffee.

The salt and butter regime relates to a time when coffee was coarser ground and brewed in a pot on the stove and people were predominantly farmers and a bit careful with their money->poor.
But it’s not as crazy as it sounds if you ask me.

Would have thought that being poor would actually mean being less lavish with things like butter.
