I will deliberately take a contrary position just for the sake of writing incredibly long arguments

Some people call this "door blazing." It gives you a slight speed advantage during a speedrun and it gives you a better look at the hazards behind the door during normal play.

I like to stay in movement even when it's not needed, to the extent that I will sometimes miss shots I could have made if I stood still for a second
Staying in constant motion is a good tactic, as it gives you some protection from projectile monsters. Even if you think you've cleaned the area there could be one you've missed.

I avoid picking up stuff if part of it would go wasted. So if I have 81 shells and I see a box shells, I first look around to find some monster to shoot and then come back to pick it up. Same goes for all ammo, items, armor, powerups.. Unless I've already cleared the level and going for the exit.. then I just go around the level and collect whatever stuff I left for later, so that my character is all maxed for the next level start.

Humping walls that look a little different than the rest, even if they're usually just decoration.
Careful ammo-preservation and secret-hunting leave your ammo and health in better shape, which promotes long-term survival.
In other words, if you want us to think you're strange you'll have to do better than that.
