I don't own any disc bikes but I'll be getting one eventually. Until now I assumed most TAs were the same because ... why wouldn't they be? Silly me.

Would say it’s a huge inconvenience only when comparing it to the qr. In overall terms it’s not that big or common an ordeal. It’ll honestly only pop up once or twice during the ownership of a frame, and even then can be measured pretty easily. Alternatives / replacements to stock items are only getting more available.
But as another poster mentioned, maybe non uniform parts are the norm rather than one spec being standardized across all uses. I know from just trying to get a decent replacement for a car rim how confusing it can get.
