As a person who went through the learning curve when working on aircraft, I've probably made all of the mistakes that can be made. That's the only reason that I'm thinking of what can go wrong with people doing their own work on dynamo wiring.

Ummmm...overthink things much? I have soldered connections, I have no training and have had no issues. Bicycles are not comparable to aircraft when it come to this type of wiring application.
