Yes- this strikes a chord- a product of a narrow field of life experience? A cable or flex is seen as a hose down which water (or electricity) flows. It doesn't matter if you tread on it, tie a knot in it, or repeatedly kink it in the same place- it's just a hose, after all. The kids then emulate their parents. These are often the same people who will only ever be able to change a wheel using a mobile 'phone- which is a shame.
