oh don't worry about offending me, i am open to discussion, not laying down the law!
my way of looking at it would be that there is a high risk of overloading a conductor because the ring is broken and the ocpd is higher than the current capacity of the cable.
couple of heaters plugged in on a cold night and the cable could be seriously overheated and no trip of breaker to protect it.
rcd wont help until the cable has melted beyond holding the conductors apart.
