Well said!
I just SORN'd mine when I left for the Americas and had no trouble at all when i came back. I booked an MOT where I came off the ferry and got some UK insurance sorted while i was in Holland before I left Europe.
On my last trip from Singapore, my insurance co wouldn't given me any insurance for the EU from Turkey onwards back home, they said I had to arrange it from the UK and not while I was on the trip so had no insurance at all that time. I got ins for Turkey at the border but at least I tried...

I'd say the chances of getting stopped between the ferry port and your home on the return journey from a trip is miniscule in the UK these days!
