RCA or XLR iInput Shorting Plugs or Pins


Looking for opinions on the routine use shorting or non shorting plugs, pins or caps on unused preamplifier or amplifier inputs. Does it really lower noise if inputs are not selected? Shorting vs Non shorting? Why are some manufacturers opposed to shorting plugs for routine use? Is there as much merit for XLR shorting pins as RCA shorting plugs?  Thank you for your advice and opinions!

Cardas makes covers to be used on all unused inputs (made absolutely no difference in my system)
