Eurorack is a modular format, but you generally install a new module once and then only unplug it a few times if you decide it might be better somewhere else.

Surely instead of series diodes you'd just have reversed diodes to
ground to trip the protection on the PSU, and not have weird random
voltage drops across the diodes?
