Do you screw in both bolts on VGA cables, just the top one or ignore them altogether? (sh.itjust.works)

Context kind of matters for me, but if I'm screwing any in, it's both of them.

My monitors are on a swivel bar, and plug into the underside. Those get screwed completely in if the cable has screws. But on the desktop, since it doesn't really move and I've never yanked a cable, they're usually left loose.
