Rich,
Can you please clarify if this statement represents the policy of the Living
Computer Museum or is it something more personal? Perhaps some qualification
or a re-phrasing would be useful as it does not appear to make sense as it
stands?
I think you may have seen or participated in some of the many discussions we
have had on this topic on this list? In light of these discussions, I find it
hard to see how a categorical statement such as this one could be justified.

It is generally a good idea to re-form
electrolytic capacitors in power
supplies, and to bench check the power supplies (under some kind of
load) before actually applying power to the whole unit.
It is always a good idea to replace electrolytic capacitors in power supplies.
The rest of the advice is sound.
