I thought it looked suspicious how neat the cabling was done and cables taped down to the floor to prevent tripping hazards. This would most likely not be the case for a one-time event.


Why not? That's the standard on film shoots in locations that are absolutely "one-time events". People do that all the time.


Unless you're claiming this was pulled off by a pro film crew, that point is irrelevant.

My computer setup is far from a one-time event, and my cabling is a nightmare.


The point that people tape off cables to prevent tripping over them is irrelevant? Not sure that's the case. Just because you don't care about cabling doesn't mean everyone else doesn't. I've watched network engineers do marvelous work on short order.


Criminals don't file for workman's comp.


They don't like tripping over their own gear, either.


They also aren't known for having high levels of common sense in general, but I would also kind of expect anyone willing to work with this amount of equipment would think about cable management at least a bit.
