I agree with what you say to a point. But, if it’s an hdmi that is used for gaming consoles or laptops to plug into, you bet my installed HDMI is going on a wall plate or f/f coupler of some sort. Most of my work is commercial and end users are relentless for breaking cables.
This way the integrity of the cable is not compromised and they can replace a short patch cord or f/f connector. Otherwise, I’d be replacing 50’- 100’+ cables weekly. Not worth my companies time to be doing that.
This is correct. And in the residential market you might not be able to replace that 50 ft. length of HDMI cable because it's buried in the ceilings/walls.
