Ugh, did it just show you random dots and call them ghosts? I bought one of those apps for a trip to a supposedly haunted hotel last year. It was just a random number generator making spooky noises. My phone even died faster from it running in the background. Total scam for sure.

Honestly, I get what you're saying about it looking neat, but that surface-mounted conduit is probably a code thing, not just a style choice. In a big open space like that with high ceilings, they can't just hide the wiring in a ceiling that isn't there. The fire alarm system needs to be super easy to get to for any fixes or checks. It's cool that they made it look clean though, a lot of places just slap it up and call it a day.

Ever try a cold chisel for that?
