I wish they would redesign HDMI, though. It suffers from precisely the
same defect as SCART -- the cable is too thick and springy, and the
flimsy connector has no detent. Rubbish piece of design.

Some are made of limper cable. Not surprisingly, given the thickness, longer
cables tend to be limper, regardless of the material.

I like the lack of a detent. You pull on the cable, and it simply falls out.
You can't cause the display (or other device) to slide or fall over.
