Generally the way you do it if you're not a complete and utter psychopath is that any given pipe goes directly down from the location where it comes out through the wall, and then the horizontal part is in the floor or along the basement ceiling(if there is a basement). Aside from saving you from bullshit like what we see there, it also means that you always know where in the walls drainage and water pipes are, and thus the odds of you whamming some of them with a nail or a screw while putting something else up are next to zero.

No way to detect it until the wall falls down. That’s why hone inspectors are mostly trash. Which is why all the famous home remodel shows on HGTV have to gut the whole home to get it up to code. Most home flippers put some new paint up and cover up the bullshit as much as possible for as little as possible to sell it.

In Canada, very few people besides the cops are actually allowed to pack heat in their day to day lives, so we can't just go around shooting things like geese and people like Americans can.

But seriously, is there any way for a home inspector to detect this kind of bullshit after the drywall is up or would you have to pray an inspector came to the site early enough to catch it? From personal and professional experience, it really depends on where you are & the culture of town-city code enforcement. In my area (Gloucester County, NJ) and in Philadelphia, plumbing, electric & mechanical rough-in require inspection before the drywall goes up. L(icences)&I(nspections) in Philadelphia have gotten much, much better since the June 2013 Salvation Army collapse; before that it was a bribe-fest. If that pipe absolutely has to run along that route it either has to be mounted in the wall surface, or enclosed in a boxed-out chase outside of the stud run.

I didn’t even notice the completely ‘notched’ studs, I was imagining both the water and sewage lines freezing on the first cold day. Although the notching isn’t bad if you use e load-bearing drywall. Am I really first with that?

I would guess, that if you ABSOLUTELY have to do that there are metal braces that would make the notched out studs structurally sound. Maybe. Just don't do that in the first place. While remodeling my house, there was a light switch in between a window and a door that led to a converted patio/sunroom. The goal was to reshape the door/window access into the sunroom, using the header of the window for a new passage and framing in the door so we could put fresh drywall on it. When we pulled the wallboard off we found out that the studs next to the door had been cored out in order to fit the light switch leaving something like a 1/4" worth of wood on either side of the two studs. Upon removing the door frame the studs started to flex apart as they no longer had the electrical box and door frame holding them together. Not by much, but we could see a 1/16" gap where there wasn't before. We quickly sandwiched the cored out studs in between two fresh studs that we snugged into place and restored support for that section of wall. Thankfully the header and footer were in perfectly fine shape so we pretty much just added some new studs to that section of the wall and left the old damaged studs in place because removing them wasn't really necessary and trying to remove them might have triggered other problems and they made for a good spot to help secure the new studs into place. In retrospect we probably over-reinforced that section but rather safe than sorry.

 The more I look the worse it gets. Looks like the studs were drilled then cut after when they couldn't fit the drain. No traps , no vents going to be a lot of stagnant water just sitting in that line.

Based on how much they notched those studs and then the added wood, guessing when they first ran it, the drain didn’t have positive drainage.
