There are other minor things such as shotgun replacement of capacitors, etc. but these are more or less justified depending on the conditions.
I for one think -- while not being a confessed shotgunner myself -- that replacing caps is a refreshing down-to-earth attitude compared to the mythicism surrounding old leaky crapacitors; a bad offspring of the tube vulture vandalism.
It is the circuit that does the sound, not the age of the crapacitor. Any fool can swap in a NOS cap. Hardly any fool can design an amp. This borders on audiophoolery practices, which a lot of the time is "We can't change what's important (the acoustics of the room) so we place the speaker cables on small supports of special wenge and pockenholz construction and think that it's going to make our horrible room sound better."
There is one case of "worse is better", though, that bears mentioning:
Many years ago, I worked at a place where we were tasked with repairing theatrical dimmer packs, the kind where there's a 30A input, and 6 5A circuits controlled by a 0-10V signal per circuit. The triac would fail, and sometimes take the trig optocoupler and an adjacent resistor with it. We looked up the values, got new parts, slapped it together, and out the door. Tested, working.
It came back, a bit too often, with the resistor fried. Ok, higher wattage resistor in, out the door, next!
And it came back again. Same fault. It turns out that the original resistor was carbon comp. We'd fitted metal film. According to the manufacturer, the circuit was marginal enough that there were latent oscillations in it that only were tamed if the resistor was carbon comp. If a "better" metal film resistor got replaced, the oscillations went on a rampage.
