Not arguing against the use of struts - just the lack of proper fitting. B-Line makes a bunch of fitting that are pre-fab, or can adjust to virtually any angle.

Check here for some samples.

Strut to angle fitting to minerallac? OK.

Strut 'field expedient engineered" by cutting? not a chance.

Call it the equivalent of the Code's "as designed" language.
