Adapters like this tend to stay in the outlet fine, as long as your outlets aren't really old. (See also Apple's chargers. They don't come with the extension cord by default, just the "duckbill")

But, the ports thing is true - you have to put them in the bottom receptacle, and you can't have two of them in the same outlet.

This seems to be also local-specific; In Europe, the box contains both the extension cord and the "duckbill".
