It did meet the “less than 6 movements” rule though. The 70 amp about halfway down is feeding the bars in the lower half.
Stick of dynamite? I'll have you know that the seller who called to threaten me with a lawsuit over this one said a licensed electrician did that lovely double-lugging at the top, and an electrical engineer inspected and approved it.
SO THERE!

The lugs at the top feed the bars at the top, but not the bottom half (fed through the 70 amp breaker). Those 5 in the upper half are all 220v, and they disconnect all the circuits when off. Doesn’t that comply with the “6 movements” rule?

Yeah, the handle ties are hard to see on those “skinny” jobs.
What got me was that the electrician double-lugged on top for a subpanel in an outbuilding, but there was enough room at the bottom for one more skinny double-pole. A totally unneccesary risk that could have resulted in burning the house down.
When I told the client about it during the walk-through he asked to see it. I finally agreed after some discussion (wherein he agreed not get closer than 3 feet or extend either hand), and pulled the cover. He stared at it for a good 5 minutes, wrote me a check, and backed out of the deal. The seller called threatening me 2 days later. When one has photos like this in ones pocket, threats bounce off like marshmallows.
