This is definitely a case of "how far do you want to take it" haha =P I don't think either way is very time efficient, but sometimes I do find myself sitting there spending 10 minutes trying to get a tiny piece of brass free from the tube its connected to... sometimes you just have to win the battle no matter how long it take haha

You just described me to a t ! That's why I don't bother with them , but I always get the ones under the mobo on desktops . I might have some weird plastic phobia or my subconscious knows once it hits the recycling bin it's is never heard from again .
