"It certainly could if some of the lugs were at 95 and others were at 130 though"
I doubt that could happen. Once a torque is set on the torque wrench, they should all be pretty much within the setting tolerance range unless you change it again. I don't think an installer would keep changing the setting from one bolt to another on all 4 wheels.
"Most installers these days use torque sticks which are extension/socket combos that supposedly automatically set the torque"
Do you mean the torque wrench set the torque itself? I have no idea what you are saying. You need to set the torque number yourself.
