[TCML] Caps in parallel

I have mounted several circuit boards with capacitors (WIMA FKP-1s) is
series, 20 to each circuit board. The configuration is four columns of five
caps each. Now I wish to connect the circuit boards such that the caps on
each circuit board will be in parallel. Assume the connection of each group
of caps is at the upper left corner (UL) and upper right corner (UR) of the
circuit board. Now, by connecting each board UL-UL and UR-UR, I know the
caps will be in parallel. What if I connect them UL (board 1) to UR (board
2) and UR (board 1) to UL (board 2)? This configuration is much simpler and
uses less wire. Any hazards I am overlooking?
Your opinions will be, as always, highly valued.
