Most respectfully disagree.

Our treasures do not see one 100th of the vibration and rough handling expected in military service.

If the parts are clean and properly tinned and the joint is properly heated, that joint is not going to come loose or vibrate apart before Judgment Day.

More band switches and tube sockets have been destroyed by trying to un-twist those unnecessarily twisted wires or twist them back than were ever recovered that way.

One man’s opinion, but one man who’s fixed a buncha’ radios.
