Apart from all the other extremely obvious things. I've never understood why people put thumb rests at the bottom of the strings. Surely that's an utterly pointless place. 

They're tug-bars - so you can hold there whilst playing with your thumb.

I didn't even know that was a thing 😂

 

I play with my thumb on a couple of tracks and never felt the need for a tug bar. It seems a bit odd and surplus to requirements to me, but then again so do thumb rests.
