Default Holes through floor joists for 10/2?

Wouldn't that imply that everyone is getting lots of induced voltages
at the load panel where all the circuits meet and some are "smack up
against another" as they run into the box? I have a some romex
connectors with 2 and 3 circuits passing through them into the box.

Would the very short distance of "smack up against another" in these
cases make the induced voltages negligible?

Thanks!

You do not want to pull more than one cable through a hole;
theoretically the currents in any given cable sum to zero but if you are
pulling a LOT of current and there's a cable smack up against another
one, you could get some induced voltages.
