For most network applications I agree with you, it shouldn't be stripped
back more than a couple inches, but usage of cat 5 isn't limited to just
networks. It's commonly used for telephones, alarm systems and long serial
cable runs just to name a few. And I won't even mention the short pieces I
use for my breadboard :o)
