Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why?

But the bass is good!

When you finally get there let me know if you run into some more resistance (Hoffa)🤓

Ask Pierre S. He spend hours arranging the orientation of his cables. It may as I have forgotten how it sounded like by the time he gets through. Just kidding Pierre

I stepped on one of Pierre's cables at the show and lived to tell about it. 😬

Who inspects the cable to ensure the crystals are properly aligned and then decides which way is best for optimum signal flow? And after this is determined, who, at the factory ensures the cable has the proper orientation?
Something smells fishy to me here.

the cable manufacturer listens to cables made with the first wire taken off a new large spool of wire to determine which direction sounds best. The rest is easy, no?
