You’re absolutely right, but especially for anything high frequency (like DSL, cable internet or general networking) you want to make sure the wiring is not kinked, knotted, squished, compressed or strangled with zip ties. Smooth bends (think no tighter than the diameter of your coffee cup) and of course, properly terminated.

It’s not hard to do at all, but if it’s done in a slapdash or negligent manner you’ll have poor performance.
