The impact of these cable management techniques is more than cosmetic, and well worth the effort. Best to plan on replacements and either toss or give crimped cables to people you don't like. If you have cables that won't straighten, try hanging them (fold the longer ones in half if required) someplace warm and dry for a while to un-kink them, but badly crimped cables will have shielding problems and short out eventually. Pressure applied during wrapping procedures or in storage will cause crimps and other damage, especially as the materials become brittle with age. Avoid wrapping cables in tight or overly complex configurations when prepping for storage loose loops are enough.
