I would have thought the same thing for the Katrina event, but the riggers who come with the generators are very savvy and nothing seemed to faze them as they worked with high voltage (220 & 440) and transforming into AC from DC and vice versa is child's play to them. Three-phase motors and all, just "routine" as far as they were concerned. They ran everything from the parking lot.
As far as cables, I'd rather avoid a cable than live on cold sardines and crackers, wouldn't you? Plus, it might be nice to have more than a battery lamp if you are in an inside cabin with no porthole!

They lost a lot of business over that. Not just because it happened, but how they followed up on it (to your point; eating sardines on a cruise ship:mg
Kids smoking in the barn? That was the cause of a recent fire on a farm down the road from my home.
On one of my cruises, there was a couple that took down the smoke detector in their room. One of the ship's officers and a couple of gentlemen escorted the young couple to.... somewhere else on the ship.
All to smoke a joint. What boggles my mind is.... there are all kinds of solitary places up on the upper decks at night. Not sure why they did not go up there; most people don't care what happens there.
