Perhaps they are trying to discourage people from permanent use of extension cords. Wnen we arrived at my wife's parents house, the basement, and connections to outbuildings were teaming with extension cords of every type and capacity running thihs way and that, daisy chained - you name it, I saw it! Shocking...

Mostly this was in place of running proper electrical service, and it was truly horrifying to me, but people do crazy things and get away with it most of the time... I can't understand how there was not a fire or an electrocution.
I don't hold with furniture that talks.
