Should cable elevators be used?

I read the dictums from Mapleshade and others that speaker cables should be lifted off carpets of synthetic material.
I always had wool carpets but in retirement have moved to a condo covered in synthetic berber,can't say I have noyiced any great change in my 12ft MIT or ZU speaker cables .
What's the general consensus?

Rok2id...absolutely they would...if people are told they fix some imaginary fault, and if people are willing to send their checks, there is no reason why they souldn't be manufactured. If they help your system send a check...that's what moves the economy.

Stringreen....I am shocked!!!! I read your post in utter disbelief!!! You seem to be implying that there are greedy dishonest charlatans within our own ranks!!!! Say it ain't so, please say it ain't so!!
But I can take solace in the fact that I got my elevators for half off MSRP. They were $3,000 for 4, but I got these bad boys for a cool $1,500. I see where some members use toilet paper inserts.. I get my paper at walmart, and I don't think it's audiophile grade. Maybe I should try Stereophile. Do they sell toilet paper? In a sense it would be appropiate if they did.
