Did it go in straight? Its kinda tough to do... not impossible but just not easy.

IME... never had issues mounting new tires. Used tires... sometimes.... not as simple to set up tubeless.... don't know why.
Mount the tires with a tube first so that the tires get in the correct shape. Then try tubeless. As Magic mentioned... just unseat one side only when removing the tube.

The press fit BB on the RDO that the LBS installed, the logo on the caps on both sides don't align. It bothers me.... :D

It's straight. And no, I didn't do it but I was there when he did.

+1 on the soapy water. Try pulling the beads as close to the edge as you can before hitting it with the air. Or try the old fill it with propane and light it trick if all else fails. Do that in the driveway though...

Maybe fire isn't the best idea considering @The Governor of Maxtown history here.....

Did you install the stem?
Because even tho it may visually look straight... once you install the cap and the screw prematurely binds a bit... it aint straight.
Its prolly fine even if its off a bit... but my OCD... it would bother me :D
