What if the client wanted it that way?
Then you make everything else quieter in order to compensate so you don't
have to cut the last one so hot. OR, you put less time on the record.
Remember, if the chef in Restaurant A
won't char table # fifteen's steak to a
crisp, that customer will simply eat
elsewhere! 
He can't, because you can't fight physics. You can only cut so much excursion
before the record won't play at all.
