What am I not understanding with this?

http://www.molex.com/datasheets/pdf/en-us/0190010005_QUICK_DISCONNECTS.pdf

It's a MALE .187 quick disconnect which I could see being handy for a few situations.

The thing that throws me is that it's insulated but my FEMALE .187 quick disconnects are insulated too so how could you possibly plug this insulated MALE qd into the female version? Wouldn't the insulation on the male QD get in the way of plugging it in?
 
The insulation jacket of one of the connectors (female, I believe) is lareg enough to house the insulation jacket of the other connector. I find these pairs on monitor DAG grounds all of the time.

Huh. Okay, it's worth ordering a handful I guess since I'm putting together a Mouser order anyway.

Thanks!
