"Big waste for a bit of lazy convenience" sums up the present state of things quite nicely.

  I haven't done the math, so it's conceivable to me that self organizing cables have a longer duration, hence, maybe off-setting the "waste" of neodymium by reducing waste of copper/plastic. I'm biased towards thinking it does not offset, but I'm not sure, I haven't done the math nor read of someone else's I'm just mad because that phrase you put in quotes sums up how people jump to conclusions before even caring on doing the math, as if decisions shouldn't depend on the outcome of those calculations Most of visceral complains about plastics comes to mind, if you read from someone that has done some barely competent calculations and investigations, you realize that most of what should be done is to avoid the use of plastics near bodies of water, and only in the cases where the math says it's a good trade-off
