nah probably latex free gloves he stole from the hospital

Latex not used nearly like it used to be because of all the people allergic to latex products.

Checked an 1199 and a 1098R tonight and the pads there were staggered, too.

Honestly, I don't think it makes any difference at all. I'm leaving the right rotor pads 'upside down' and the left rotor pads 'right-side' up.

I've only done a few hundred sets of brakes....but I use antisieze or grease to avoid galling, not loctite! If there was a factory service manual out it'd recommend grease. Grease the screw threads and install to the recommended torque....if they'll ever publish it!

I'm with you, don't think it matters.

Yup..way to go! Use Grease! Better! I have been doing my own bikes for years and caliper bolts is one area I apply a light coat of grease...always. Never had them loosening while riding...ever.

You will never have a problem loosening them when the time comes to service your brakes again...torque them to specs always.
