I work in manufacturing, not repair, and keep the human robots supplied
with .015, .020, .025, .031, .040, and .050 diameter solder. The range
of things we work on makes having a broad selection helpful. But I
wonder what repair techs use most frequently? (If I could only have one
size, I'd go with the .025 I think.) Also I assume you guys on the other
side of the ditch are using metric sizes?

I use almost exclusively 0.7mm for general repair work. I also have a reel
of 0.5mm for surface mount work, and some 1mm for 'heavy' work

Same here.
I buy the lower temperature stuff. 66/44
