I have one 3-way circuit where there are both hot and neutral connected
to each switch. The light is connected between the common terminals.
People call this unsafe (light may be hot when switched off) but it works.


Lots of things "works" but that does not mean they are correct or safe.


The important point is that it is something you may find.
