A guy at the yard in Tulsa told me to always mark my flanges with a paint pen before I pull them, and man, that saved me a ton of time last week.

Mark them BEFORE you pull them? I always thought you marked them after to match them back up. That's a game changer for lining everything up again.

Wait, you were marking them AFTER pulling the wires? That sounds like a total nightmare. How did you even keep track of which one went where? Marking before is the only way to not lose your mind. You just put a little tape or a number on each one before you disconnect anything. Then it's obvious where they all go back.
