Work with enough cables long enough and you get to see *everything*.

Yeah but the cable fracturing between the clamp and joint should just
never happen unless the clamp has been frigged or the wire yanked out of it.

With heavier Teflon coated conductors of 12 gauge & thicker this can occur
if the user severely bends the cable close to the plug. Some clamps are
quite ineffective in this respect.
