Do you mean "poor signal strength" for the ex customer or the network?
If the former, would this only affect Freeview as I assumed?

No effect on any other services like freeview. If the cap is not fitted the VM signal gets reflected back to its source rather than escaping hence the possibility of resonances. Think open topped organ pipe, the physics is much the same.
It's a network issue and I guess with the increased possibility of customers sharing connections with splitters VM are doing the right thing with providing the cap for you to fit but providing an "incentive" of self interest to encourage you to fit it.
