GB came on here to complain that what looks like a £2.99 Aldi extension

You are so selfish that your only thought is that I was complaining. I
wasn't. I was warning other people on this NG that there's a potential
problem that could lead to an electric shock or fire, possibly.

There's a clue in the OP that ought to have penetrated your self-centred
brain, where I say: "Just a minor warning:".

And, yes, of course, I've thrown the extension lead away, and next time
I buy one it will be a better make. However cheap the original lead was,
it doesn't excuse it being hazardous.

Why do people need to be warned to throw things away when they fall apart?

You just show yourself up as an idiot when you ask inane questions.
Clearly, the answer to your stupid question is that the damage may not
be immediately apparent.

It's only not immediately apparent to a clueless ****wit of the third order.
