Warning: I ran 8 vents through a single ceiling hatch and blocked my own access

On a high rise in Chicago last month I ran 8 elevator machine room vents through a single 24x24 ceiling hatch. Looked clean from below but when I needed to get up there to fix a fan motor I could not even squeeze my arm through. The building manager called me out and I had to cut half the ducts out and re-route them. Has anyone else had a stupid layout choice bite them later?

Can't believe you actually stacked 8 vents through one hatch.

Last time I tried that the whole stack exploded on me.
