High hopes: Cabling photos

As the old song goes, "All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting..." Could they have been singing about shoddy cable management?

It was the American pop rock band Panic! At The Disco whose 2018 song counseled: 

"Mama said don't give up, it's a little complicated / All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting / Had to have high, high hopes for a living..."

Was the band directing this wisdom toward deployers and maintainers of ICT structured cabling and connectivity? Were they referring to proper cable management? 

The answer is almost certainly no. But isn't it pretty to think so, as you peruse the latest structured cabling nightmare photos as found posted to Reddit's various social media subcommunities devoted to the IT trade?
