No, I don't agree at all. A cable's ability to conduct a DC voltage is no indication of it's ability to conduct an AC voltage at 100MHz+, where impedance, capacitance and mutual inductance on to different pairs become important.

As home networks start to reach higher speeds, the skill of the "home networker" must improve as well, that includes buying or renting any test equipment needed.

If you were building something yourself from brick, you'd hire/buy a cement mixer. If you were adjusting the timing on you car, you'd buy/rent a timing strobe kit.
