I'm glad that all of the keyboards with that
connector that I
have all are detachable. Makes replacement that much easier if
there's a problem. All of the ones I mentioned previously are
detachable at the keyboard, including my DECmate II, which I forgot
used the same type. It takes a bit more work to get the cable off
though since it runs through a little channel on the bottom of the
keyboard after it is connected.
OTOH, the A1000 cable is easily replaced with a common telephone wire, unlike
the Mac (it seems).

Especially when you pack them into a box for
movement.
Wrapping them around the keyboard lessens this somewhat but I dislike
doing that since it stretches the cable out of shape.
I still think it's quite elegant, with that satisfying click when correctly
inserted.
