Guess I worked too long for a company that manufactured equipment for the defense industry. I thought that the diodes in question were mounted on a terminal strip, with each diode connected to an individual terminal. Connecting the diodes together mid air would definitely put a thermal strain on the middle diode.
Heck, we even had to use a rubber strap around any part that weighed over 1 oz to anchor it to the printed circuit board.
