A) yes. When you roll up a cable, there is only one state where it unrolls perfectly versus lots of states where it is tangled, and a loose cable easily moves between states.
This also means you can't avoid it completely. But you can reduce the problem:
- Roll up each cable properly using the over/under method. This reduces tangling and prolongs cable life because you don't twist the cable as much.
- Tie each cable together with one or two velcro cable ties per cable (the two cable ties go on opposite sides).
