I don't have a problem with what you said. The risk is minimal though. I don't see it as a death wish. The system is unplugged when not in use. I've done other things I don't recommend like on an old NAD 2200 I took off the crap 16 gauge power cord and put on a good one wired direct to the transformer primary. This bypassed lots of stuff besides the switch and it was plugged into a switched outlet in a Monster Power device that would break the connection at 10A so a dead short would have safety but not its operating current. Again it was off unless I was right there listening. What a HUGE improvement it made.
