I think the issue is that these have microprocessors inside
that translate button and switch hits to key sequences of keys.
Perhaps these micros must be shut down properly. Perhaps you
are only running a tiny chance of hurting them if you don't.
Our wheels are just pots and wires, so I doubt that they are
vulnerable to this.
