I don't either, because the approved euro terminal strips don't
provide plates for the smaller wire sizes. I also use the euro
terminal strips inside appliances, and if I'm connecting finely
stranded wire, I tin the wire with 63-37 solder to consolidate it, and
clamp that.

It was a common habit in the Netherlands until forbidden. With a reason.
Yes, I know. Only done for small wires at low power.
