  • It’s probably not for shipping of the final product at all. Cords for a product are going to be purchased in-bulk. There will be thousands of these cords with sharp and semi-fragile ends all packed together and then handled throughout the product build.

There’s no good reason to remove the cap after assembly, so it stays on the final product to the consumer.
