Personally, I wouldn't hire a roofer who racked. I also would insist on high wind nailing (6 nails per shingle instead of 4) and finally I would only allow hand nailing. Most nail gun operators don't have a clue about depth adjustment and just run along. Hand nailing works better and holds better.

I don't like the way it looks, either. U-gly for sure.
