More opportunities to make a mistake when cutting & splicing. What exactly are you working on?

They tried to cover as many export country regulation variations as possible.

They had a basic loom to cover several models and just changed sub looms to accommodate to keep part stock low.

They changed suppliers at least once during the production run.  :m

And I always thought that the engineer who designed the airbox said "Hey boss, can I design the wire loom...I've always wanted to try one of those and it will have lots of pretty colors?"😊
I may not be big, but I'm slow.

Yes, indeed. LOTS of pretty colours.
