What I said about the matter is that anyone attempting to engineer a 3d printed part to the degree that the difference matters is far better served by just making the part thicker and ignoring the entire headache.

Make it properly, not make it thicker.

An example:

I encountered this making spring “C” clips to hold rigid shells for nerf. When grabbing the shells during “panicked reloading” the clips would break. I made them thicker, they still broke and it became harder to remove the shells. I received feedback from a mechanical engineer who told me to make it thinner and put a fillet in a specific location to relieve the stress; this worked. And being thinner they were easier to remove, too.

This is application dependent but entirely true.
