Or if you just plug the cable in till the first click.  (though they

No, it is simply an impedance matched sum.

If you use a send return cable, yes, the *dry signal only* will be
removed from the mains.  The wet sound will still be heard unless you
turn down the send to the FX as well.  I think the "first click trick"
leaves the signal intact.

Yeah, it's generally not worth it.  You'll either lose the returns or
have a cable half hanging out waiting to become disconnected at the
slightest nudge.
