I've been accused of being an "expensive pilot" picking up "bad habits" by my BC (although a bit tongue in cheek… but in every joke there is a bit of truth) for not choosing to cruise at FMC Max Alt but using nearest level below Opt Alt, using 2nd detent reverse instead of idle reverse when I thought the situation warranted it, and dropping the gear at 4,5 nm instead of 4 nm from the runway. The fuel fanatics are out there...
