Have you seen the way they connect their wires? They just twist them
together and put a plastic cap over the bare wires!

They are called wire nuts, and contain a threaded metal insert. Sort of an
inverse of a self tapping screw. I understand the hesitance, but they don't
seem to be a problem

We used to have a similar thing but made of ceramic, called a scruit
(sp?) (pronounced screw-it) I understand that they may be outlawed these
days.
