Nah, it is all about safety.

If you triple over a stretched HDMI cable it will safely disconnect.

If you triple over a stretched VGA cable... Well, may God save you and your monitor.

You're right, having problems with the HDMI staying in IS a skill issue.

MY BODY IS A MACHINE THAT TURNS ELECTRICAL SIGNALS INTO COLORED PIXELS. YOU HAVE NO POWER OVER ME, MORTAL. DON'T TREAD ON ME.

Like 3 plugs in the same port? How do you even accomplish that?

I'm listening. This sounds like a story my grammy used to tell me.
