It's normally a real pain in the ass to reuse them. If you just barely
spread the end they won't fall out and you can reuse them. You just
pull them out without screwing with them first. There is probably
someone so cheap they reuse safety wire.

Well, technically, just barely spreading the ends is how you are
supposed to use them..
