That litle green Phoenix connector is cool. Wires screw into it
without tooling, and it's easy to mate and unmate. But it's only 5
pins.

 The problem with those connectorfs, and the Weidmuller equivalents, is
that humans aren't strong enough to un-mate them. And the spring-push
wire clamps are flakey. And that they have no no opinions about pin
numbering.
 

We've used a lot of those plugable connectors, never seemed like a problem to unmate them
doesn't have to be spring clamps, https://www.digikey.dk/da/products/detail/phoenix-contact/1803633/260535
if there no number you decide what to call the pins
