I learned a quick tip from an old lady many years ago. Open the carton and use your first finger just to tip (slide) each egg a bit so you know it is not stuck to the bottom of carton. Quick and easy.
Yep, that’s the move. You don’t have to pick up each egg and inspect it. If it rocks, it’s good.
If there’s just one or two, I look for the bad dozen, which is usually there in the case, off to the side. Open that and replace the good eggs from that carton with the bad ones in your carton. Now you have 12 good eggs, and eventually the store will have a carton of 12 cracked eggs.
You still get dirty looks from dickheads, though, which I enjoy. I’m always pleased to piss off judgemental Karens.
I do the put all the bad eggs in 1 carton too. Fuck the ones who glare. If they had any brains they would see we are helping. If not switched and consolidated there would be a lot more bad cartons tossed as waste

I just look at the bottom of a closed carton first - if there’s a crack it is rare that it didn’t leak
I have to open and see if there are no cracks on top as well. OC I guess.
Well of course, that’s just normal caution but don’t bother if you already see a wet spot, try another carton

I used to do this but I got burned once or twice, wound up with cracked eggs that hadn’t leaked enough to stick or hadn’t stuck, for whatever reason.
