Alas, just another old wives tale i'm afraid. There is no reason whatsoever not to dress and cut to size to suit the installation.
I'd say that virtually every RCBO's neutral tail and functional earth lead has been, or will be dressed, and cut to size on our project. There is nothing worse than seeing a DB/CU filled with unwanted lengths of RCBO tails and leads. Get them dressed and cut to size, not forgetting to fit a suitably sized pin ferrule...
Straight from the horses mouth, for Schneider at least.
