Moulded ones will be cheaper and easier for the manufacturer to deal

But less cheap and easy for the consumer to deal with.


Generally, cheaper for the consumer to deal with, because most people
won't need to take the plug off. As far as I'm concerned if your
personal wiring setup requires you to remove the plug, that's your
problem and you can take the responsibility and cost for making it work.

There's no point in the manufacturer complicating their process and
making the product more expensive just to cover a tiny number of edge cages.
