The large, flat British plug seems to follow the 'perversity of
nature' rule and drop 'butter side down' with the pins in the palm of
your hand most of the time - thereby providing the shocking experience
which is deemed adequate to need mitigation.
It needs mitigation because consumers complained about it and often
tried to reject the product as 'unsafe'. It's not only our lovely 13 A
plug that drops 'butter side down', the Continental Schuko plug and its
relatives do it.
