Most times, that's true. If, however, during the winterizing process if someone were to have opened the low-point drains
before draining/bypassing the water heater, the cold line (lower on the water heater tank) would collect all the debris.
It seems remote, but it does seem to happen to folks on this forum. It's not enough to have a checklist--the checklist must be executed in a particular order.
