Actually, it makes sense, and that rule applies to all electric components.
If you plug anything the wrong way, or in a faulty circuit you have a very
good chance of burning it. Sometimes that is noticeable with the naked eye,
other times you need to run a full diagnostic to find out if the part
still works.

So nobody wants to take any chances on returned electric parts.
