It seems to be a dead horse but I am gonna beat it anyway. If something like a
fingerprint on the outside of the 3-500Z tube envelope could damage its thick
glass under normal operations, other than being a negative aesthetic thing,
then why do the tubes have trademark and identification imprints on them by
design? At the risk of starting another thread, I see more fingerprints in the
oxide that forms on my silver plated parts in the amp. Fortunately silver
oxide is conductive unlike its copper, iron, and aluminum counterparts.
