"Greenfield" flex conduit for DIY power strip?

Since I need a solid power strip that will not be moved around too much, I thought I'd pitch my idea. Using high quality outlets and ac plug:
Here's the layout:

copper gold plated wall outlet -> copper gold plated plug
copper gold plated plug -> "Greenfield" conduit with solid wires
"Greenfield" conduit with solid wires with hard connection to 2-Gang Weatherproof Electrical Box
2-Gang Weatherproof Electrical Box with 2 copper gold plated outlets.

This seems like a natural extension of the in-wall wiring with high quality electrical connectors and the least possible count of connectors for a power strip.

Conduit and elec box can be filled with sand if vibration control is needed or beneficial.

Your thoughts?

That is a similar approach to my own setup - I have a single dual-outlet with a 10 ft extension cord. The outside box is aluminum and grounded.

I use my own Helix power cable design to eliminate cable noise

The greenfield flex conduit will impact sound quality and is unecessary in the home environment

What's wrong with that one? I ask because it's the closest thing to what's in the wall. Exterior flex conduit can be used as the shield, directly connected to the aluminum box and ground, no?
