The immoral of these stories is that a connector, unless specifically
rated for a certain insertion duty cycle, should not be subject to
multiple re-insertion cycles. Components intended to interrupt load
current and/or are rated for multiple insertion cycles should be ok and
will serve the Empire well if used per the mfr's conditions of
acceptability.
This is true, but for some widely-used connectors the manufacturers
either don't give a clear specification or, for insertions, quote an
incredibly low figure, which, if respected, would cause the connector to
be rejected.
