Wasting holes on breadboard

A project log for ESP-12 and ESP-14 adapter to DIL

To program or test ESP-12 or ESP-14 before installation, then plug adapter into breadboard and the ESP into adapter. Unplug when done.

When trying to put a wire into breadboard right next to the adapter, there is not enough room for those pre-made cables with plastic support at the ends. So, I see two possibilities: make the joining block taller [easy] or rotate the ESP block so the ESP is on its side (or end) [harder, but may be more practical in use].

And since another version is on the radar, make the walls of the ESP socket slightly wider at top to allow better jamming in of the ESP module.
