I see...

Makes it kinda hard to rest the ends of the wires on both battery 
terminals simultaneously when they're utterly rigid though. Similarly, 
if you've got one wire that's 4 holes wide and another that's 6 holes 
wide, you have to systematically design your circuits to not need any 
connections 5 holes wide. Routing becomes formally equivilent to solving 
the Zero Sum problem. (!) Not to mention the fact that those tiny 1-hole 
wide wire loops are excruciatingly hard to manipulate.

By contrast, if you have some flexible wire, you can make a loop of any 
size you desire, and it's very easy to work with.
