Yeah. I wouldn't do that. But I do more than the average person would, especially when it's going to be exposed to elements and visible to the eye. Cedar has a way of dropping its knots after it fully cures outside. I won't install a board with a knot in the joint. Even basements and additions, I look down every stick to ensure that it's true. One bowed board can seriously jack up an entire wall or shower. I don't trust labor to eliminate them. They don't care as much.
