Talking like 12.3 hours for 10 real hours; not billing 27 hours in a day.

If a firm told a client an attorney overbilled they'd have to refund a lot and it would be horrendous for relations

I get that. But would they tell them that/care, assuming work product was ok?

partners definitely notice and get annoyed when its substantial - like billing 90 hours for something that takes other associates 50-60. then they write it off, which they hate, because they have to explain it to other partners.

So the key is to figure out what the acceptable range is for a given assignment?
