Well, I'll don my asbestos suit and dump on the power poles.
They're too flimsy, over-rated, over priced, non-re-useable, non-standard
( red on the right or it is?? You cannot plug in any of the Molex or later
connectors such that the polarity is reversed and you don't need a $40
crimper to install them.)
I use power poles ONLY when they can't be avoided.

Careful, Bill. You're about to be flamed by the Power Pole Police! You
know, those
that insist that insist that it takes 2700 lbs of force to disconnect PPs
or that you, in
your stupidity, have assembled the connectors improperly!
I've had them come apart several times when futzing around the back of my
desk
sending my K3 into never-never land!
