Yep... You can choose to use railroad track rails and rail spikes to make
your power distribution connections - but you'd be the only guy in the world
with that "system".
I prefer a "standardized" system myself.

What am I missing about PowerPole connectors?

It seems to me to be a solution in search of a problem. What do they do that
you can't do with a crimp type ring terminal and a screw type terminal strip
at much lower cost? 

It looks to me like someone wanted to make some money by inventing a product
that didn't need inventing and then selling to hams as if it were a
necessity. 

Am I wrong?
