Netting Over Connectors - Do They Help?

Many premium cables come with loose netting around the connectors.

Do these actually help? Has anyone heard the difference with and without?

Know others will post anyways but will pay attention to responses from those who believe cables make a diff.

They are to be removed when the cable is in use.
