Yep. Acorn mains cables in particular, for some reason! Like you say, it can

The lesson seems to be to never put anything into a polystyrene shell without

On a related subject, the mains cable of my UK101
has become sticky
where it has been in contact with expanded polystyrene for many years.
Has this happened to anyone else and does anyone know if this is a
chemical reaction?
I've seen this often, especially on equipment stored in expanded
polystyrene shells.
