And the professional should also be aware of this confidence and in such a case say: dear layperson, thinking purely mathematically (80+60 or 60+80), it will look like joint avoidance, but unfortunately not nice (even without the misunderstanding of the order).
From my point of view, the professional should have suggested here (and I wonder, doesn’t he have a wife to tell him this) laying the 80s (or 60s, but not mixed, because the batch miscolor problem should have been clear to him) in the middle of the running line. That would have resulted in one more joint, but not as a botched central stripe.
