I agree with your logic, but the same logic can be applied to every connector and wire within the speaker, and every component for that matter. Every connector and type of wire within components are subject to dissimilar metals and/or possible inferior quality. I'm a modder so very aware of all this, do upgrade wire and avoid connectors in most cases.
In the case of elimination of binding posts, not yet tried. Would require cutting into my best speaker cables, just not something I've been willing to try up to this point. Perhaps some may desire binding posts vs none, colorations imposed by bp may be pleasing in some cases.
