Anti-short Bushings

Are they required for MC cable per the NEC? I believe just for AC cable, correct? Thanks

Why not use em? They come free with a coil.

I have only seen one shorted MC wire and it was at the throat of a squeeze-tite connector, not on the sheathing, so the anti-short bushing did not help protect the wire.
