If you submitted plans for approval, you should install what was approved. The inspector isn't and shouldn't be required to make calls on your planning, or lack thereof.
If the designer decides to addfixtures, should an inspector ignore it as a design issue?
I have a real problem with this concept. I can see submitting plans with receptacle locations and fixture locations ONLY for the purpose of ensuring that their spacing and location satisfies the code. Other than that what the h**l business is it of the inspector and building department?
This business of measuring locations and comparing them to the dimensions on the "approved" drawings is asinine and looks more like abuse of power than anything else.
