The worst I've encountered is the very audible signal from the

What you're describing has nothing to do with vinyl; you're talking
about "print-through", which is an artifact of the tape mastering
machine feeding the cutter, where you can hear signals from adjacent
lengths of tape.
Dunno about the record industry but I would edit in leader tape to
remove any from the start of a track.
I think that was normal practice everywhere, except for places
that used the same tapes over and over again, but their material
was unlikely to go for cutting anyway.
