Ever try pulling jellybeans out of a 3/8" hole?  For some things, a
staggered, soldered splice is the only way to fly.

By the way, if you ever have a lot of wires to splice (and don't mind a
little silicone grease), the ultimate weapon is a Scotchlok E-9 tool.  It's
designed for use by telco cable splicers.  It uses cartridges of ten
connectors, with the open end of the connector facing out:  insert wires,
squeeze, done.  Expensive, but really cool.
