I've played with someone like this once. It is infuriating to have to halt the flow of the action just so that everyone can take their time and describe shitty little menial tasks they are doing and that should just be left to reasonable expectation so that they don't give their petty DM the oppotunity to fuck them later.
There are so many ways to create fun challenges for players, being anally adversarial with the players is not one of them. They only person deriving joy from that is the shitty sadistic DM.
Sorry for the very personal attack, but bruh.. I got triggerd just by reading your last two sentences.
Guess it depends who you're playing with. I play with my friends and we're comfortable enough with each other to get one another's humor and do some light ribbing, but I suppose that's not everyone's experience.
