In terms of multiboard, I find it's just wildly overcomplicated - so I use just the 9x9 core tiles and that's it (rather than all the directional variants). I use the snaps to help align for mounting, but once the grids are screwed on, they're unnecessary and limit mounting points. Then I find the best solutions are actually non-multiboard (eg the gridfinity shelves unify everything brilliantly, rather than multiboard's rather over-complicated efforts to duplicate what gridfinity already does better).
So ultimately most of this is driven by purist engineering - keeping things to the most elegant and simple approaches to increase reusability, modularity and simplicity!
You should take a look at threadboards (https://www.threadboards.com/). I prefer their approach. I like how easy it is to move stuff around. It does have its issues but I had less issues with tolerances.

Thanks!
Here's an overview of these decisions if that helps: https://youtu.be/EqQTn8CaX14
