What about the California Ell (aka Street Ell)? ½" male thread x 1"
female thread. We have used those in seismic zones for TI like described.

If you had branch lines with welded outlets and mech tees were not an option,
then yes you would have to replace the branch line. Even threaded you have to
weigh out replacing the branch lines or dissemble and replace each fitting, if
mech tees aren't allowed on the project.

Out of curiosity Bobby, what would you do in a seismic zone if mechanical trees
weren't an option due to specifications or building standards? Replace the
branch line? Fortunately I'm not in a seismic zone.

You’re a third party glancing over a bill of materials for an add/relocate
day job. You notice one of the line items is calling for several ½”
shoulder nipples.
What goes through your mind?
