Say perhaps you get stranded wire cheap or for free perhaps. Stranded wire
does not work well when you loop it around your terminals on outlets. Yes you
can buy high quality outlets but crimp fittings are really reliable and cheap.
But not to code. Use the correct receptacles for the type of
wire.
Stranded THHN/THWN is a listed wire type for most binding terminal
devices. (receptacles and switches)
The workmanship requirement may be a stretch for some unqualified
installers.
