So, don’t leave male and female cables alone in a dark box!

I think so. Keeps the insulation from dry rotting.

Keeping it closed also means that you don’t have to breathe it in (and prevents dust from getting in).

So that the cables don’t get covered in humid air and dust which sticks to them and forms a grime (with bonus added chemicals from the plastics).
