Dumbest cable question


I know some cables may be directional or at least have some type of arrow showing where to connect each end. However, most do not. Here you go:

Is there any value to rotate your cables every now and then. In other words, switch the source component end with the “end” end. This way signals have a chance to flow opposite direction within the cable  

If this is a super silly question, my apologies.

I've been told by a few manufacturers that a non-directional cable, once hooked up, should be used only in that direction...no idea about the why of all this, but certainly easy enough to do, and no reason for manufacturer to mislead us...
