I am really meticulous with my wiring. Everything has to be so and so. But for me this has little to do with artistic considerations.
I find that the best strength of the wire can be realized when neatness it is considered important.
Those 45 degree turns do more than just please the eye. They are a combination of the maximum holding power and stress relief when bending a branch. It also makes removing that wire much easier.
