I wonder ... Do you think 'this' can be used as 'Plan C" to loosen tension somehow?

A square tool interface is highly unusual. It would require a specialized tool or a flat blade screwdriver jammed into it to turn it. This suggests that adjustment of that plug is rare. I would check to see if the plug is tight or loose, using a screwdriver. If it is tight, leave it be. If it is loose, rotate it one way or the other a half turn and watch to see if the cable tightens or loosens up.
