    So I see it as not good mechanical connection . I never done it but as you wind a spring on a medral , You know that the spring wire spring out on diameter of the mmendral. Just me thinking on this boring day.
    What your are seeing as a huge problem is the fact that you are viewing the twisting stripper as the final step of the connection. which it would never be if the connection was done properly, the twisted part would either be folded back on itself and pinched with pliers or served with an additional device or material to hold it together.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
