From what I've seen, we practically rivet everything. We can drill out a rivet in a very short amount of time, and riveting a new one in place is almost as simple. Using steel rivets is another story. Many a broken bits from those, but we only use them in places that REALLY need them. Plus, I think it's easier to just drill in from one side instead of having to fit a wrench or something up into the inside of a possibly cramped frame. Just my opinion though.
