But it is prudent to allow for them anyway.  The FTDI RS-422 cable seems to have a terminator on the receiver, but not the driver and no provision to add a terminator to the driver.

It is pointless to add terminator to driver, there will be mismatch
anyway and resistor would just waste transmit power.  Mismatch
at driver does not case trouble as long as ends are properly
terminated.  And when driver is at the near end and there are no
other drivers, then it is enough to put termination only at the
far end.  So FTDI cable seem to be doing exactly what is needed.

I guess at 1 Mbps, 5 feet is less than the rise time, so not an issue.  Since the interconnections between cards will be about five feet as well, it's unlikely to be an issue.  The entire network will look like a lumped load, with the propagation time on the order of the rise/fall time.  Even adding in a second chassis, makes the round trip twice the typical rise/fall time and unlikely to create any issues.

Closer to 50 ns due to lower speed in cable.

Termination is also to kill _multiple_ reflections.  In low loss line
you can have bunch of reflection creating jitter.  When jitter is
more than 10% of bit time serial communication tends to have significant
number of errors.  At 9600 or at 100000 bits/s with short line bit
time is long enough that jitter due to reflections in untermined
line does not matter.  Also multidrop RS-485 is far from low loss,
each extra drop weakens signal, so reflections die faster than
in quality point-to-point line.
