Don't just be concerned with the dwelling's interaction with contractor-types while it's being built. You also need to consider down the road, several years later when you want to add your frangible whoseewhatzit or wire for a oscillating framus. Walls that are impossible to fish wire within after completion of the house are no good. An attic that is the bane of electricians is to be avoided.
Keep in mind, a house that isn't installer friendly will cost you more money. Longer install times, aggravation fees (where applicable), and difficulty finding a willing company to do the work in the first place are all possible.
Wide open attics with walkways, walls that are easy to run wire in, windows and doors that are serviceable, framing that is pipe-friendly. All gigantic plus signs. Just sayin.
