How about whenever you try to use Technic parts in a “non Technic” model?

I guess I should have been more specific and restricted my request to just
TECHNIC models. As I’ve said before, I use TECHNIC bricks quite a bit when I
want TECHNIC functions in a non-TECHNIC MOC, but I rarely use them instead of
liftarms in a fully TECHNIC MOC. TLC’s official products seem to be following
the same pattern these days, with TECHNIC bricks found in sets like the Inventor
and Designer series, and even in the 4+ series, but not in the more advanced
TECHNIC line.

Besides it’s all supposed to be part of a “system”, right? Without some
studded Technic bricks it’s hard to connect to regular bricks!

Hard, but not impossible. If you look at a transparent 1x brick, you’ll notice
little ridges formed into the interior to provide gripping surfaces for the
flange of a TECHNIC pin, round 2x2 and 4x4 bricks and cones have axle holes, and
there’s always the stud-pin.
