I finally tried a different line weight for hidden lines on a complex assembly drawing

For years I stuck with the same thin dashed line, but on a big gearbox project last month it just looked messy. My lead suggested bumping it up one point size, and it made the whole drawing so much clearer to read on screen. I was sure it would look too heavy, but it actually helped separate the internal parts from the visible ones. Has anyone else found a small change like this that improved their drawing clarity?

You waited years to try a thicker line, that's wild lol.

Wait, years? That's actually crazy.

Honestly I get waiting that long. A thin line works fine for most everyday stuff. No reason to change what isn't broken.
