to invent a load that will stress an amp -- Apogee Scintillas were such a load for most amps, and who knows what could be designed in future that would cause a bad reaction from some. Inability to drive Apogee Scintillas says nothing about an amp's design for most applications.
I remember the times, and I (at least now, in my dotage) can recall no precedents in home audio for the ultra-high capacitance presented by Cobra cables no matter which speakers they were used to connect. I think you might better ask "who the heck would design such an . . . amp w[h]ere [nothing remotely conceivably ever connected to it] . . . would [stress or damage] it [in any way whatsoever]". I suppose such a design were possible, but it would be very expensive.
Of course "cables can have a huge effect" -- just imagine the effect of a 100' run of 64-gauge in most set-ups.
