Y'know, maybe it's the trouble-anticipating computer geek in me, but
without having been told to do that, it's never occurred to me to handle
flash cards any other way -- all other potential paths would make me
cringe, as my subconscious enumerated the ways things could go awry.

And yes, I've used nothing but two 2G Sandisk Extreme III SD cards in my
M8's as-yet-young but already busy life, and not a card hiccup.
