Plumbers used to have to learn to do a material takeoff so they would know how much pipe and which fittings to take to a job site. Now, pvc is so cheap they take a truck load of pipe and fittings and haven't the slightest idea of how to plumb a house.

As far as the manafold is concerned I've seen framing top plates taken completely out on load bearing walls and am not surprised at anything I see today. There are NO professional plumber today.
 
That romex is not near long enough to reach all the way to the water in the trap of that stand-pipe! Rediculous how plumbers and electricians refuse to work together. Come on guys...its a team effort!
 
Let the "nit picking" begin!

Neat & workmanlike aside..

QUESTION # 1: Is it compliant? If not, please cite chapter & verse.

QUESTION # 2: Will it actually work? If not, please ciite chapter &

verse.

On your marks, ..get set, ..GO !
